5 reasons DJ Sbu won't go away

Johannesburg- It's no secret that DJ Sbu has faced his fair share of drama and controversy. 

The MoFaya boss found himself in hot water after advertising his energy drink at last year's Metro FM awards.

This saw him being sacked from his position at the radio station. Shortly after the debacle, Sbu publicly called out industry big wigs for not supporting local entrepreneurs, and then there was the fake Forbes Africa scandal. (Yes, 2015 was filled with ups and downs)

Even though the odds were against him, Sbu never gave up on believing in his dream. This led to him bagging his own reality show, Kicking Doors on CNBC Africa. 

While Sbu's energy drink isn't where he wants it to be, he continues to push forward. 

This is why many of Sbu's fans continue to take inspiration from him. 

Here's five reasons Sbu isn't going anywhere but upwards...

Sbu the hustler:

His continuous self-belief:

You want to know why you're not where you want to be in life? It's simple. 1st eg, it's 5:30am & you're still sleeping. #YourBiggestProblem is that you're full of excuses, you always procrastinate & aren't working hard enough to be great at anything. You want to be like Kanye West or Mark Zuckerberg, you want success, the lifestyle, the money, cars, fame etc, but you're neglecting the one thing that opens all doors: Being the best at what you DO & doing it at a level that simply takes the breath away of those who watch you create your masterpiece. There are no short cuts, no get rich schemes &/or no easy way out of it. Rise & grind my hustlers. It's your day. Get up. Dress up, Pray up & go claim it! #HappyFriday #ChasingTheFirstFlightOut #NailsStayDid #SmellingLikeAMillionBucks #MindIsFresh #HustlersDrinkInMyHand #IAmTooBrokeToBeSleeping #ManOnAMission #BillionairesUnderConstruction
