His life changed when he released a hit song called “For a Reason” way back then in the year 2006, can you imagine that? Today, the man owns a multi-million Rand energy drink company called Mofaya, which made him one of the richest DJs in South Africa.

The second business he owns is called Makoya Chicken, which is one of the small growing chicken restaurants around Durban in South Africa, plus he also owns Makoya Bearing cider alcohol, which I believe was the greatest idea as many people in South Africa like to drink alcohol. The statistics are saying nearly half of the country drinks alcohol.

Lastly, Dj Tira owns Fact Durban Rocks, which is an events business he does for musical gigs and celebrity promotion in Durban. This event is also similar to Casper Nyovests’ event concerts like the Fill Up The Dome events in South Africa.

The majority of his earnings come from his music record label and his side businesses, especially his cider Makoya Bearing s cider.

DJ Oskido

Dj Oskido is one of the greatest and oldest DJs in South Africa till today. The man is one of the pioneers of the house music genre in South Africa back in the year 1999. Many people were not aware of the house music genre at that time back. Today he is a record producer and businessman with over 26 years in the music industry, can you imagine that?

Now, let’s talk about how he makes his millions in the business world. Oskido owns a record label company called Kalawa Jasmee Records, which is one of the largest record labels in South Africa today and has signed many Rrich successful musicians in the country. This was the first business he made that changed his life and career in music. It’s estimated that he makes roughly about 20 million Rands on his label, plus Oskido owns a restaurant at Waterfall Corner in Midrand and it’s called the Daruma Japanese Restaurant. I think he was trying to introduce a new food theme in the South African market. The food industry will always make money no matter what in any situation.

Lastly, Oskido has several properties including lounges and BnBs across South Africa, especially in Johannesburg. This was an excellent idea because properties are fixed, low-risk, and very profitable. On top of that, its longest-lasting business industry that one can join for sustainable income.
