Sizwe Dhlomo Honours DJ Warras For Reuniting Him With AKA Before It Was Too Late. At an emotional memorial service held in Johannesburg, media personality Sizwe Dhlomo reflected on the quiet but powerful role DJ Warras played in mending a fractured friendship between himself and the late rapper AKA, born Kiernan Forbes.
The tribute came days after DJ Warras was tragically shot and killed in Johannesburg on Tuesday, sending shockwaves through South Africa’s entertainment industry.
Speaking to mourners, Dhlomo shared how Warras intervened during a tense public fallout between him and AKA nearly six years ago, insisting that the two longtime friends sit down and talk. “About six years ago, I got into a public argument with Jarryd Kiernan Forbes,” Dhlomo recalled.
He explained that Warras, who was close to both men and often provided security for AKA, reached out with a simple but firm request. Warras arranged a meeting at a Hyde Park petrol station, asking both men to come alone. “Kiernan and I just sat there, and we spoke, and that’s how we resolved our issues,” Dhlomo said, adding that he would forever be grateful for Warras’ intervention.

According to Dhlomo, that moment spared him a lifetime of regret and allowed him to reconnect with his friend before his untimely passing. “That’s the kind of man Warrick was,” he concluded.
The story offered a rare glimpse into the behind-the-scenes humanity that often goes unseen in public feuds, highlighting DJ Warras not just as a DJ or security figure, but as a peacemaker who valued relationships over pride. For Dhlomo, the intervention became one of the most meaningful acts of friendship he ever witnessed.
As tributes continue to pour in for DJ Warras, Dhlomo’s words stood out as a reminder that his legacy lives on not only through music and nightlife culture but through the lives he quietly helped heal. In reconnecting two estranged friends, Warras unknowingly gave them both a final gift—closure, understanding, and peace before it was too late.
