Sir Trill has seemingly fired more shots at DJ Maphorisa through his song “Maboko,” adding fuel to the ongoing drama between the two artists. The controversy, which initially revolved around allegations of exploitation, has cast DJ Maphorisa in a negative light and led to heightened tensions within the Amapiano community. Many fans and observers believe that the lyrics of “Maboko” are directed at Maphorisa, suggesting the potential for an Amapiano feud.
Sir Trill recently posted a clip from his song “Maboko” on his Instagram story, with lyrics that many interpret as a direct reference to his dispute with DJ Maphorisa. This comes in the wake of public allegations and counter-allegations between the two artists. Trill’s decision to highlight these lyrics indicates that he is not yet ready to let the matter rest.
The song “Maboko” is from Sir Trill’s 2022 album, Ghost, and features fellow Amapiano stars Daliwonga and Visca. In the video clip posted by Sir Trill, he can be seen singing along to Daliwonga’s verse, which impersonates the well-known character Maleven and makes a pointed reference to asking for “the money.” The verse ends with the line “R10K is too little,” a possible nod to DJ Maphorisa’s recent claims that he paid Sir Trill.
While “Maboko” originally addressed a different situation, the lyrics resonate eerily with Sir Trill’s current predicament, making the connection almost unavoidable for fans and followers. The timing of Sir Trill’s post, coupled with the suggestive nature of the lyrics, has led many to believe that the song is a thinly veiled jab at Maphorisa.
The ongoing feud has captivated the Amapiano community, with fans taking sides and eagerly anticipating the next development. Sir Trill’s bold move to publicize the lyrics of “Maboko” underscores the depth of his dissatisfaction and highlights the unresolved nature of the conflict.
As the drama unfolds, the broader Amapiano scene watches closely. The possibility of a public beef between two of its prominent figures could have significant implications for the genre, potentially influencing collaborations, performances, and fan dynamics.
In the meantime, Sir Trill continues to express his grievances through his music, maintaining a narrative that resonates with his fans and keeps the spotlight on his dispute with DJ Maphorisa. Whether this will lead to a resolution or further escalation remains to be seen, but one thing is certain: the Amapiano world is watching.
