It’s been two long months since the murder of AKA. It’s also the birthday of his best friend Don Design. But there is nothing to celebrate, says the DJ.

In fact, the hitmaker goes as far as to call it the “worst birthday ever.”

The DJ, and others, watched helplessly as the rapper was shot and killed by an unknown gunman in Durban back in February.

Since then, the Jozi hitmaker has faced widespread backlash from the public for his body language caught on CCTV footage, moments before the shooting.

He continued: “I still have to wake up in the morning to work and be able to provide for my family. None of this makes sense.
