    Sox is my all time Durban DJ and entertainer. When he disappeared I thought he went back to business. This grootman is very very very humble and talented.

    I remember when DJ Sox came to my School (Vukuzakhe High ) in 2014 talking about drugs from there I never even think about taking drugs and Ngyabong brazo for showing the way

    Dankie Grootman for bringing DJ Sox on the podcast. He is by far the best Durban spinner on the decks. Back in the day we use to club hop from Afro Lounge, Koko and many other Durban Clubs just to listen to his sets, that man is a real pioneer in the game 🔥🔥

    @sinasomxakaza9170 Před 7 měsíci +9

    I knew something was wrong. You'd bump into him walking around Durban looking dirty. It's great that he's overcome all that and talking about it, other artists overdose and pass away so he's very lucky

    Remember back in the days when he was on gagasi fm and they hosted a show with dj tira and king sfiso every friday at 8pm, never missed a show…always heard new songs there. He started missing shows and at some point i think his car got burnt up not sure what the story was there.
    Glad to see he has bounced back fully✊🏿 “usenzan…we sox usenzan…ebsuku kangaka usenzan”

    Really enjoyed the episode getting to hear the story of Sox ,its the first time I hear Sox voice,through out the duration of the episode I have been thinking that he looks young not like someone who had been on drugs,that's why I loughed out loud when Sbu mentioned that too,Sox and Tira have very similar aura ,its just that Malume undwebile.You stand firm in your style Sbu,serious and education ,a little bit of humours that we know you of,I loughed out loud when you said ,:You are not like Oskido,igrootman yajaiva daar etiktok😂😂😂😂😂
