Here’s What Maphorisa Wants His Fans To Do Besides Only Dancing To His Songs. Technically speaking, The Scorpion Kings was a hit Amapiano album by the super DJ, producer and songwriters duo of DJ Maphorisa & Kabza De Small. But you can’t get one without the other, and the duo has made a huge contribution to the Amapiano culture. DJ Maphorisa (Themba Sekowe) is an award-nominated producer and DJ who hails from the small township of Soshanguve in Pretoria
With the latest releases that Maphorisa has been putting out, he feels his fans mostly dance to his music, but he really wants his fans to also listen to the message being portrayed in the songs. “i knw u love dancing to my music sometimes i really want u to listen to the message n relate,” he wrote.
Maphorisa first shot to fame in 2013 as part of the multifarious musical group, Uhuru. The group blew up off the anthemic Y-Tjukutja in 2013, which owned the summer. That same year, Uhuru further enhanced its reputation by producing and featuring on Mafikizolo’s chart-topping, multi award-winning hit single, Khona.
A couple years later, in 2016, a year after the group’s decision to pursue solo careers, Maphorisa landed the dream placement when was enlisted to produce on Drake’s One Dance featuring Wizkid and Kyla. The dancehall and afrobeats-leaning single took off almost immediately, and within a year it was the most streamed song of all time.
