DJ Bongz real name Bongani Dlamini is a true pioneer of South African music and dance and is stepping into a new chapter of his career. Known for his signature dance move, the Gwara Gwara, and his hit song Sobuya Sibonane, the artist is now making his mark in the hospitality industry as the proud new owner of Viewz Urban Grill and Rooftop Lounge.

With more than 25 years in the entertainment world, Dj Bongz is no stranger to reinvention and success, and this latest venture is proof of his entrepreneurial spirit.

According to Head Topics, DJ Bongz has taken over Viewz Urban Grill and Rooftop Lounge, a renowned venue that had been closed for some time. The famed club, once a vibrant hotspot, faced closure just over a year after opening due to operational challenges, including issues with unpaid salaries and late bookings.

In an Instagram post, DJ Bongz shared the exciting news that Viewz is now hiring! The venue is looking to fill several key positions, including bottle service girls and waitresses. Applicants are invited to send in full-length and portrait images as part of their application process.
