DJ Maphorisa explains how he met Kabza De Small

by Silindokuhle Booi

DJ Maphorisa and Kabza De Small made their way into the music industry as the best amapiano producers.

The duo gained recognition during the Covid-19 pandemic as they continued to keep people entertained with their amapiano mixes.

Calling themselves The Scorpion Kings, DJ Maphorisa and Kabza De Small also earned the title of being called the “amapiano kings.”

In a Street Fame Culture podcast interview where both artists were guests, DJ Maphorisa (born Themba Sekowe) opened up and spoke about how he met Kabza.

He said, “He blowed my mind with the songs he was playing and I started following him.”

He added that he was amazed Kabza De Small (born Kabelo Motha) played, “I thought to myself, ‘Yho, this guy has got his own world that he created.’ I couldn’t just let him be. I asked him no bro let’s work together,” added Maphorisa.

“I learnt a lot of things from him, how the amapiano genre works as he did it in his own way. I started attending gigs and watched him and people who he played for. Kabza taught me a lot,” he concluded.
