Nota <\/strong>Baloyi has criticized DJ Shimza <\/strong>for not expressing grief over the death of DJ Warras, who was fatally shot in Johannesburg earlier this week.<\/p>\n

Following the announcement of the well-known media figure’s death, social media platforms have seen an outpouring of condolences from fans, fellow artists, and other entertainment personalities.<\/p>\n

Despite this, Nota expressed his disappointment regarding Shimza\u2019s lack of response, suggesting that the DJ did not acknowledge someone who was significant in his professional journey.<\/p>\n

On X, Nota called out Shimza for continuing to share unrelated posts instead of paying tribute to DJ Warras.<\/p>\n

\u201cShimza tweeting about everything under the sun but won\u2019t even post a tributary post in honour of the very DJ Warras that put him on primetime radio\u2026 There\u2019s no friends or family in the DJ industry,\u201d Nota wrote.<\/p>\n

His remarks generated a vigorous discussion online, as many users defended Shimza against the criticism.<\/p>\n

Some argued that grief is a personal matter and should not be judged by external standards.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt is not fair for you to coerce them into posting what suits you. You have posted for your side and it really is enough,\u201d one user responded.<\/p>\n

Another added, \u201cDon\u2019t be like that. Just because he\u2019s not tweeting or posting about him doesn\u2019t mean he\u2019s not hurt. People grieve differently.\u201d<\/p>\n

The situation is intensified by the ongoing conflict between Nota and DJ Shimza. The two have a history of legal battles, with Shimza having previously taken Nota to court months ago.<\/p>\n

Recent reports indicate that Shimza\u2019s attorney has seized more than R400,000 from Nota\u2019s personal account due to statements Nota made in an expos\u00e9 on eNCA involving Justice Minister Mmamoloko Kubayi.<\/p>\n
