A startling old social media post by DJ Warras has resurfaced online, leaving fans and the public reeling in shock — because the popular South African DJ and media personality appeared to hint at the danger he was facing weeks before his tragic death in December.

Warrick Stock, known professionally as DJ Warras, was fatally shot on 16 December 2025 in central Johannesburg, an attack that shocked the nation and sparked intense debate about crime and personal safety.

Creepy Premonition Online

After news of his death broke, screenshots of an old exchange on his Twitter (X) account began circulating widely. In a chilling reply to a fan who jokingly wrote “RIP in advance”, DJ Warras responded that he hoped to at least “enjoy December”, a comment that now carries an eerie weight given the events that followed.

Another resurfaced post showed him discussing threats and the dangers faced in Johannesburg, where he frequently spoke about crime and personal security — conversation topics that have now taken on a haunting new meaning for many who followed his online voice.

The Tragic Shooting

Just days after these social posts, DJ Warras was shot dead outside the Zambezi Building in the Johannesburg CBD while involved in security oversight as part of his business activities. CCTV footage showed multiple suspects approaching him before the attack, and police have been combing through video evidence as part of a broader murder investigation.

Police later arrested and charged two people of interest related to the killing — a development that has added new layers to an already high‑profile case.

Reaction and Reflection

Fans and commentators were left stunned upon seeing the old tweet after his death was confirmed. Many noted the tragic irony of his words — once casual social media banter — now seeming like a grim premonition. IOL
