DJ Speedsta is slowly becoming known for his apparently endless feuds with young South African musicians.

After recently exchanging words with Blxckie on social media, the DJ/ broadcaster was spotted in a video by ego_xander at A-Reece's birthday party on 28 March 2026, where they were seen engaging in a staged verbal altercation at a nightclub.

The user is seen in the video shoving Speedsta, who turns to warn them with a cheeky "I'm not afraid of you, any of you," while pointing at their face.

In the comment section, Speedsta assured fans that they were just playing around and that they shouldn't take their video to heart

"Please don’t take this seriously, social media. Me & @ego_xander were just trolling for real!
"Sorry, big guy, I’ll bring you one when you come to Up To Speed shoot!"

The 33-year-old Speedsta recently found himself trending over his rumoured beefs with young rappers. Right before the tension between Bxckie reached a boiling point, K.Keed attempted to bait him in a beef after she refused his invitation to freestyle on his radio show.

As another beef seemingly heats up, social media is divided over whether the veteran DJ is being targeted by the new school or if he is the one instigating the friction.

Bradleoy joked:

"Less talking, more fighting, boys."

RoyIAM advised:

"Speedsta should open cases against y'all; you are harassing him now."

Meanwhile, others were quick to point out that the video appeared staged, suggesting the "shoving match" might be a calculated PR stunt to drum up hype for an upcoming collaboration or a new episode of Speedsta’s podcast.

Sceptical fans noted the convenient camera angle and the somewhat performative nature of the dialogue, with some accusing the pair of clout chasing.
