South African DJ Tshediso Mokoko better known as Don Design’s recent birthday turned out to be the “worst ever.”

Taking to his Instagram stories, the DJ opened up about the loss of his friend, rapper AKA, and death threats and backlash since the rapper died.

On the 10th of February 2023, Don witnessed how the rap star was shot on Florida road in Durban and died.

After the CCTV footage of the gruesome killing of the Run Jozi hit maker surfaced social media, it was rumoured that Don Design was involved in the killing of the rap star.

The Forbes family immediately dismissed these rumours however, despite the Forbes dismissal of the rumour, Nota Baloyi and some social media users demanded answers from Don Design as it seemed like he was involved in the killing of AKA.

Don Design marked his birthday but took to his Instagram stories, saying it’s his worst birthday ever.

“Another year around the sun, this is the worst birthday ever. From death threats to my character being assassinated on every social media platform every day,” he wrote.

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

Design says he is with his family, getting the help he needs.

Concluding his note, Don then directed a message to “fake” friends. “I don’t need any of you fake people checking up on me. I’m with my family and getting help. None of y’all can fathom half the s**t I gotta go through,” he concluded.
