DJ Maphorisa is demented at MacG‘s statement that he said on one of his Podcast and Chill episode. Calling the South African DJ, record producer and vocalist an “Amapiano gatekeeper.”
Popular podcaster MacGyver Mukwevho, known as MacG, has doubled down on his claims that DJ Maphorisa is an “Amapiano gatekeeper”. In the recent heated episode of his controversial podcast.
It is without a doubt that the music genre, Amapiano, has taken the whole world by storm. What is more is that artists like Maphorisa have contributed immensely to the growth of the genre.
However, lately, there has been a debate about who grew the genre to what it is to date.
Maphorisa is therefore facing accusations of being a gatekeeper of the genre following his saga with Dr. Malinga. As a result, MacG did not mince his words when he took a jab at 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.”
“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. F**k him. He can eat a dick. If he f***s around, I won’t even drop an EP. I’ll drop an album,” said MacG.
Maphorisa responded via a tweet saying he has never ridiculed him. Asking why he is doing this, and where it is coming from.

Maphorisa has also cleared his name and set the record straight following claims that he is the gatekeeper of Amapiano. Highlighting the fact that no one owns the genre, anyone can do it and still win at it.
“I see u dnt get it no one owns amapiano anyone can do it n win. Good example look at Uncle Waffles one trending Adiwele video the rest was history. She did it alone ohh look at Costa Titch his doing alone n winning. Stop saying I am a gatekeeper,” he tweeted.
