DJ Nimrod Advises DJ Sowe B Against Comparing Himself to DJ Roja

The public disagreement between DJ Sowe B and veteran DJ DJ Roja has drawn reaction from within the industry, with DJ Nimrod weighing in on the matter.

Appearing on Sanyuka Uncut, Nimrod addressed Sowe B directly.

He acknowledged the younger DJ’s talent, energy and ambition, but cautioned against rushing into comparisons with established names.

Let me say this clearly. DJ Sowe B, you are talented, no doubt. You have energy. You have ambition. But you are still young in this game. You cannot start comparing yourself to DJ Roja just yet. DJ Roja has been on bigger stages. He has worked with major artistes across different countries. He has put in the years, the sacrifice, the grind. That level does not come overnight.

Nimrod framed his remarks as guidance rather than criticism, urging Sowe B to recognize the journey that comes with building a lasting name.

Sowe B, this is not hate. This is wisdom. Respect the journey. Respect the elders. The game was here before you, and it will continue after us. But while you are here, learn. Legends earn their stripes. They build their names city by city, country by country.

He then broadened the message beyond the current disagreement, turning it into advice for all rising DJs navigating the industry.

And this message is not just for DJ Sowe B. It is for all young DJs coming up. Talent is important, but respect is power. Give respect to your legends. Study them. Honor them. Then build your own lane. Your time will come. But do not rush greatness. Respect it first. In the DJ world, you do not just play music. You earn your name.

DJ Sowe B is yet to respond to DJ Nimrod’s remarks.
