Pirates give Shimza the blues

Johannesburg - Poor Shimza! Just as he we were popping bottles to celebrate the news that he would soon be releasing his debut album, the music pirates came to ruin it all!

The popular house DJ was supposed to release his highly anticipated album last week, but the album was leaked prior to its release, costing Shimza thousands.

So, Shimza has decided to delay the release of the album until it's all sorted out, even though fans are knocking at his door daily asking why they can't get their hands on the album yet.

It's not out yet, will let you know when it is ???? https://t.co/0rV8KXJzOm

Shimza says the incident has taught him some pretty important lessons.

"This is a A very important learning curve and most of all, a wake up call for me I thank God for his doings, nothing beats the Almighty's plan for me, I'm actually stronger than I thought I was... ," Shimza wrote of the incident on Instagram.

Don't you just hate it when idiots ruin it for the rest of us?
