DJ Maphorisa speaks on his Amapiano journey without Kabza De Small. South African Twitter users have taken up a discussion on the pioneers of Amapiano which DJ Maphorisa’s name appears to be off the list.
The claim started after DJ Maphorisa mentioned how they paid attention to the street and elevated Amapiano. But yet, fans claimed DJ Maphorisa got his tag through Kabza De Small as one of the pioneers of Amapiano alongside Stokie and MFR Souls.
Getting to the heart of DJ Maphorisa, he took them down to his first Amapiano track in the industry which did not feature Kabza. The track titled Mrivi T had the efforts of Snow Deep, Howard, andTumza D’kota.
Quoting him directly, he said “2017 dropped my first amapiano song, n it was not with Kabza been at it. i invested my life with Amapiano almost 5 years dnt come with bullshit”.

This clearly shows DJ Maphorisa has been doing his best years ago to also elevate the genre.
