DID YOU KNOW? WHY DJ SBU IS THE TOP HUSTLER
“Ngubani uMzekezeke? Who is Mzekezeke?” was probably the most popular question in the entertainment industry in the early 2000s. DJ Sbu is still believed to be the man hiding under kwaito legend Mzekezeke’s mask but he’s always dismissed the claims.

DJ Sbu co-executive produced over 30 gold and platinum selling albums and has released seven successful house albums of his own!
