Chymamusique Faces Backlash Over Bike Video Following Tragic Accident
Renowned DJ Chymamusique, born Collen Ntala Mmotla, recently sparked controversy after sharing a video featuring himself with a motorcycle, just months after surviving a devastating crash that resulted in multiple fatalities.
Misunderstanding Surrounding the Video’s Timing
On the social media platform X, the artist posted footage showing him at a fuel station alongside fellow musician Mörda, who was refueling his vehicle. Despite the clip being recorded some time ago, many viewers mistakenly believed it was a recent recording.
This misconception led to a wave of criticism, with some questioning why Chymamusique would be back on the road so soon after the fatal accident that claimed the life of his close friend, DJ Poizen.
Public Reactions: Criticism and Support
Comments ranged from concern to admiration. One user remarked, “Bro doesn’t have trauma being on the road,” highlighting disbelief at his apparent lack of fear. In response, Chymamusique shared his approach to healing, stating, “I’m fighting it by being back on the road.”
While some doubted whether he had fully recovered physically and emotionally, others applauded his courage in confronting his trauma head-on and continuing his rehabilitation journey.
That’s part of life.
Details of the Tragic Incident and Recovery
The accident occurred on 30 August 2025 along the N1 highway near Polokwane, Limpopo, resulting in several casualties, including DJ Poizen. Chymamusique suffered critical injuries, necessitating multiple surgeries, including a complex brain operation, before he was stabilized and moved out of intensive care.
Despite the severity of his injuries, the DJ has maintained an active presence on social media, regularly posting images and videos of himself with his motorcycle. His resilience and determination to heal have been evident, even as he faces ongoing scrutiny from the public.

According to recent studies, nearly 30% of accident survivors experience anxiety related to driving or riding again, making his progress particularly inspiring.
As he continues to rebuild his life and career, Chymamusique’s story serves as a testament to resilience and the human spirit’s capacity to heal, even in the face of profound loss.
