DJ Maphorisa, one of South Africa’s most celebrated Amapiano producers, has hinted at the possibility of appearing on MacG’s Podcast and Chill. The revelation has caught fans off guard, particularly given the contentious history between the two.
Maphorisa’s statement comes after MacG referred to him as a “greedy vampire” during a February 2024 episode of the popular podcast. In his remarks, MacG accused Maphorisa of exploiting younger artists, stating, “That guy is a vampire. He feeds from the youth. He is greedy. The right thing to do would be to share the spreadsheet accordingly. That’s why these boys are crying. Have you ever heard anyone say a nice thing about working with ‘Phori’?”
The comments reignited long-standing debates about Maphorisa’s role in the Amapiano scene, with some accusing him of gatekeeping and prioritizing personal gain over nurturing emerging talent. Maphorisa, however, has repeatedly denied these claims, insisting that his contributions have only elevated the genre and provided opportunities for countless artists.
In his recent social media post, Maphorisa addressed the potential interview, expressing a desire for the discussion to remain positive. “He’s my boy but he’s naughty. I don’t know I’ve been thinking about it but I don’t know. I’m 50/50 about it I’ve been thinking about but they naughty,” he said. “It need to be positive more than anything you know me I’m controversial and stuff and I like those kind of topics because they bring comments and like me I want the real things. Let’s talk about music, the culture, the industry, where it’s at and where it’s going,” he concluded.
This statement suggests that while Maphorisa is open to addressing past controversies, he prefers a constructive dialogue rather than a confrontation.
Fans have since taken to social media to share their excitement and opinions about the potential interview. Many are eager to hear Maphorisa’s side of the story, while others wonder if the two can set aside their differences for a meaningful conversation.
Maphorisa’s potential appearance on Podcast and Chill would undoubtedly be one of the show’s most highly anticipated episodes. The podcast, known for its unfiltered conversations and viral moments, has a reputation for tackling controversial topics and offering guests a platform to speak their truth.
As Maphorisa continues to dominate the Amapiano scene with his innovative productions and collaborations, this interview could be an opportunity to clear the air, address accusations, and share his perspective on his role in shaping the genre. Whether or not the sit-down happens, one thing is certain: fans will be watching closely.
Will DJ Maphorisa and MacG finally squash the tension, or will the interview spark new debates? Only time will tell.
