December losses are no joke.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Another criticised the situation, writing, \u201cThis thing of booking artists with ongoing cases always ends in tears. We warned them.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Not everyone was harsh, though. Some showed compassion for the rapper\u2019s situation, with one person saying, \u201cWhether you like him or not, Shebe is going through a lot. Hope justice takes its course.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Fans who were hoping to see him perform also didn\u2019t hide their disappointment.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe were ready for his set this weekend. Now everything is cancelled. Yoh! December ruined,\u201d a user lamented.<\/p>\n<p>So far, Shebeshxt\u2019s team has not issued any official statement about the alleged refund demands or the cancelled shows.<\/p>\n<p>The rapper will remain in custody until his next court appearance on January 19, when his legal team is expected to resume their bid for bail<\/p>\n<p><!-- CONTENT END 4 -->\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n<p><script data-jetpack-boost=\"ignore\" async src=\"https:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-1669381584671856\"\r\n     crossorigin=\"anonymous\"><\/script>\r\n<!-- Africa tv video display -->\r\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\"\r\n     style=\"display:block\"\r\n     data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-1669381584671856\"\r\n     data-ad-slot=\"3579572842\"\r\n     data-ad-format=\"auto\"\r\n     data-full-width-responsive=\"true\"><\/ins>\r\n<script data-jetpack-boost=\"ignore\">\r\n     (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\r\n<\/script><br \/>\n#Shebeshxt #faces #R2m #refunds #bail #delay #forces #promoters #cancel #festive #gigs<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#13; Shebeshxt Controversial rapper Shebeshxt is once again dominating social media conversation after reports claimed he may have to refund&hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":39801,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[32],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-44645","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-mzansi"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/eduzim.co.zw\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/44645","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/eduzim.co.zw\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/eduzim.co.zw\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/eduzim.co.zw\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/eduzim.co.zw\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=44645"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/eduzim.co.zw\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/44645\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":44646,"href":"https:\/\/eduzim.co.zw\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/44645\/revisions\/44646"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/eduzim.co.zw\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/39801"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/eduzim.co.zw\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=44645"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/eduzim.co.zw\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=44645"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/eduzim.co.zw\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=44645"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
