Amapiano sensation Sir Trill has found himself in hot water after being accused of allegedly failing to settle a R1,880 bill at a popular venue, The Loft Club, following a night out with his entourage. The incident, which took place on Saturday, 3 May 2025, has gone viral on social media, sparking widespread debate and disappointment among fans.
According to a waiter who served the star and his team, Sir Trill — whose real name is Tumelo Mzwakhe Zwane — allegedly promised to pay the bill the following day after failing to pay on the night. However, days later, no payment has been made, and attempts to follow up with both the artist and his management have reportedly been unsuccessful.
The waiter took to social media to air the grievance, sharing a detailed thread about the incident. “So @SIR_TRILLSA and his team left me with a 2k bill at The Loft Club on Saturday (03/05/2025)… Sir Trill failed to pay his bill of R1880, which he promised to deliver. I reached out the next day — no payment came through. I also tried contacting his manager. Still nothing,” the post read.
The situation is drawing mixed reactions online, with some users defending Sir Trill, while others are calling him out for what they view as unprofessional and disrespectful behavior. The backlash is intensified by recent reports that Sir Trill was seen driving a R4.4 million Mercedes-Benz, with critics questioning how a star flaunting such luxury could default on a relatively small bill.
This controversy comes just weeks after Sir Trill’s music comeback, including a new collaboration on the track “Ziphi Izinkomo” with MaWhoo and S33kay. While fans have praised his return to music, this latest incident risks overshadowing his career momentum.
