Watch! Maphorisa Threatens To Slap MacG. Themba Sonny boy Sekowe, known professionally as DJ Maphorisa, is a South African DJ, record producer, singer, and songwriter.
The beef between DJ Maphorisa and Mac G seems to be getting meatier. Maphorisa went on his Instagram Live yesterday to answer industry-related questions from his fans. The music producer talked about the music business and how artists no longer distribute their own music independently. He said they opt to sign with major labels because they have bigger resources.
Mac G claimed that upcoming Amapiano artists needed Maphorisa’s co-sign in order for their songs to become popular. Alleging if they don’t approach him for his blessing, he will use his power in the industry to suppress their music.
This comes after MacG called Maphorisa the gatekeer of amapiano. The podcast host was sitting with his co-host Sol Phenduka when he made these claims, pointing out that he was not scared of DJ Maphorisa. “Let me tell you a story about gatekeeping. There is someone who told me that Maphorisa is going to be mad that I am dropping an EP and I did not ask for his approval,” said MacG
“Now I must ask Maphorisa before I drop an EP. They said Maphorisa is going to be mad because I did not ask for his approval because he is a gatekeeper. He is not my father broe. Fu*k him. He can eat a di*k. If he fu**s around I won’t even drop an EP I’ll drop an album,” said MacG.
DJ Maphorisa took to his Twitter account to explain and said, amapiano ke “With or Without u” movement no gatekeepers let it sink in”. “I see u don’t get it. No one owns amapiano anyone can do it and win. Good example look at Uncle Waffles one trending Adiwele video the rest was history. She did it alone. Ooh look at Costa Titch he’s doing alone n winning. Stop saying I am keeper.”
