Title: Alleged Beef Between Amapiano Producers: Insights into DJ Maphorisa and Kabza De Small’s Relationship
The reported beef between amapiano maestros Kabza De Small and DJ Maphorisa appears to have escalated, shedding light on their dynamic as collaborators.
According to sources cited by ZiMoja, the duo, known as Scorpion Kings, is said to be downplaying their apparent discord. Allegedly, Maphorisa has claimed responsibility for propelling Kabza into stardom, overlooking Kabza’s own diligent efforts in cultivating his reputation, even during his tenure in Alex.
In a December 2023 interview on the Street Fame Culture podcast, Maphorisa reminisced about their initial encounter, expressing admiration for Kabza’s musical prowess and subsequently proposing collaboration.
Insiders suggest that Maphorisa’s purported lack of supportive gestures, particularly during Kabza’s marriage to Kamogelo Moropa last year, has strained their friendship. Though harboring sentiments, Maphorisa reportedly opted for silence rather than confrontation, resulting in a palpable distance between them
This recent tension is not isolated, as sources recall previous instances of social media banter between the two, misconstrued as publicity stunts. Presently, their professional collaboration and camaraderie seem to have dissipated, evident in their sparse interactions and joint performances.
Maphorisa’s recent Instagram Live session further fueled speculation, as he rebuked persistent inquiries about Kabza’s whereabouts and their alleged partnership. Asserting Kabza’s autonomy and accomplishments, Maphorisa vehemently distanced himself from the incessant scrutiny.
Contrary to speculation, Kabza reaffirmed his camaraderie with Maphorisa, dismissing rumors of discord as baseless. In a social media post, he emphatically asserted the unbreakable bond between them, dismissing any notions of animosity
