If there's one thing that can't be downplayed its DJ Sbu's hustling spirit! That guy is about his money, his business, his legacy... look he's ouchea tryin' to be the billion he was born to be.

Here are three times Sbu's hustler skills stood out!

That time he got to America and told them we sent him to rep us at Nipsey Hussle's memorial...

Recently while in the States rapper Nipsey Hussle was shot dead. Like the African Sbu is - you know how we don't wait for invites to funerals, we go offer a hand as soon as we hear - the DJ made his way to Nipsey's hometown.

That time he took to the highway to sell Mofaya... or was it Joburg CBD's Bree taxi rank?

Look, there isn't a place DJ Sbu hasn't tried to sell his Mofaya drink at... like the guy is always selling something. Sometimes it's his brand, his books, his drinks, music and at this point if you look like you are buying, DJ Sbu can sell you the African sun!

That's a true hustler. 

That time he taught us how to uhm... save money, well kinda

Earlier this year musician and businessman Sbu faced the Twitter firing squad after a lesson in hustling seemed to go pear-shaped.

In a video shared on Twitter, Sbu spoke to followers about hustling and pushing boundaries in a new environment, while on his way to a gym in LA. Sbu then told followers that he would show them an example of hustling. 

He explained that he didn't have a membership at the gym but had been working out at it all week by just simply walking past access control. 

He didn't mean we must do that, he later explained. Look the guy was just saying, whenever there's an opportunity to save your moola, do it!
