Kabza jokes about DJ Maphorisa
In a viral video shared on X (Twitter), the Kabza Chant hitmaker joked about DJ Maphorisa’s alleged gatekeeping claims which were filled by his Instagram live confession.
In the video, Kabza jokes about owning everybody’s music royalties because they are in his studio and eating his food.
Laughter erupts in the room as many catch on to who Kabza is mimicking. DJ Maphorisa himself shared the video.
Why is DJ Maphorisa said to be a gatekeeper?
“When you record your music on my computer, my studio, with my electricity. That song is mine, it belongs to me. You people do not know anything. I am the one who buys the food, the one who buys water and everything else. So, what do you own? Why must you own things you didn’t come with?
“Please understand that when you work in someone’s studio, that project now belongs to them, it’s not yours. Buy your own studio and plug-ins, FruityLoops, a microphone and everything else, then make music and release it. Then you will be the owner of your masters.”
