Controversial South African rapper Shebeshxt took to social media to reveal that he is looking for a driver to drive his car during weekend gigs.

Since his thrust into the limelight, the star has undoubtedly been busy and booked. Shebeshxt has been winning big and has been headlining several shows.

 

 

 

 

Surprisingly, he has shared the stage with some of the entertainment industry’s big names. However, despite his big wins, he has hogged headlines for the wrong reasons.

Shebeshxt

This year alone, he has been involved in two fatal accidents, the most recent being in June.

Apart from that, Shebeshxt has been involved in a string of road rages and often finds himself making some public apologies.

The star revealed in an X post that the driver should be sober-minded from Friday to Sunday. However, he also made it known that he was picking one of his fans from the comments section.

Shebeshxt posted, “I Need A Driver. Must Be Someone With A Valid Driver’s License & 2 Years Experience. Must Not Drink Alcohol, Or He Must Be Sober On Friday, Saturday & Sunday.

“I Will Pay. Thank You. I Will Choose On The Comments.”

No doubt the Shebeshxt’s post has gained thousands of comments and reactions since it dropped on X.

Fans were quick to give him a nod, while others urged him to look for someone on a permanent basis rather than only on weekends.

An X user commented, “her book those professionals, someone who aids by their company rules and contract of employment. Rather than just a random person without PDP.”

Another user posted, “Koloi yo dula konna akere Maburna.” Another user, “Greatest decision ever, extra.”

Shebeshxt was involved in a fatal accident in June.

The accident happened while driving from Polokwane to Lebowakgomo, where he wanted to drop off his daughter and her mother before the muso proceeded to a gig he was scheduled to perform at.

However, he didn’t make make it. While on his way, he collided with a truck on the R37 road near Smelters Mine outside Polokwane, not far from Chuene.

This was his second accident in the space of six months. Earlier this year, he had a near-fatal accident near Polokwane.

Speaking to Sunday World, earlier this month, his lawyer revealed that the rapper was out of the hospital and recovering from home.

The lawyer further added that the musician is coming to terms with his daughter’s passing.

However, barely a week after his discharge, Shebeshxt is trending after seemingly sharing his first photo after the accident.

A photo of Shebeshxt’s new tattoo has set social media abuzz. The star had his daughter’s face tattooed on his leg.
