TNS Urges Caution Against Unauthorized Use of His Name for Publicity
Renowned DJ, TNS, born Nkazimulo Ngema, voices his concern over the unauthorized use of his name to promote events without his consent, highlighting the negative impact on his brand.
Recently, TNS found himself booked for an All-White party hosted by DJ Cheeze without finalizing the agreed-upon payment. Despite this, DJ Cheeze proceeded to promote the event using TNS’s name prominently on the event flyer.
In an exclusive interview with Zimoja, TNS expressed his dissatisfaction, emphasizing the need for such practices to cease.
“I am not happy about what he did. It has happened more than once before where a person falsely claims that I have been booked for an event when I have not. This has a detrimental impact on me as a brand because I always strive to deliver my best.”
