Twitter roasts DJ Tira over 'twang' and 'fake' accent

Poor DJ Tira! The musician faced the wrath of Twitter professors on Monday who roasted him over his "twang" and "fake accent" when he took the hot seat with Scoop Makathini on The Cover.

The musician became the talk of the town on Monday night, when he stepped into Scoop's studio to speak about his hustle to fame, discovering Big Nuz and dealing with the death of his friend R. Mashesha.

While the content of Tira's interview had viewers wanting more, it was his "twang" that got the most attention.

As Twitter does, Tira became the butt of many jokes and memes over his so-called "twang" and "fake accent".  This quickly saw him top the Twitter trends list, which has become a weekly occurrence when Twitter isn't impressed by The Cover's weekly celeb guest.
