BIG NUZ WAS ONCE BASED IN JOBURG? Bhar revealed to the publication that he was in the group in 1998 when they were still based in Johannesburg but he soon left them to focus on his solo projects.

I'm one of the founders. People don't know that because I left the group early to focus on my solo projects. I was in the group in 1998 when it was still based in Joburg. The sudden death of Mampintsha was very heart-breaking because I knew him as a brother. That's why I'm more than willing to help Danger with the group's project as he is left alone, said Bhar.
