- Adesope Olajide aka Shopsy in conversation with DJ Maphorisa, giving insight into growing up in Pretoria, South Africa. We hear about his musical inspirations; his gospel background and musical family. Maphorisa explains falling in love with afro-house music, leading to producing and DJ gigs. He praises DJ Mujava’s sound as well as Angola, Mozambique and DRC Congo’s dance moves! Shopsy discusses how South Africa has led sound in Africa, including kwaito in the 90’s and how Nigeria has borrowed its sounds.
The pair talk about the 2013 hit ‘KHONA’ by Mafikizolo (ft Uhuru). Maphorisa talks about his relationship with Wizkid; connecting through music, hearing amapiano in Pretoria together and credits Wizkid with putting him onto amapiano. Maphorisa shout outs Davido for giving credit to the sound’s origins and admits he once disliked African artists taking off with the sound without giving credit but had to let it go when he knew he created something the world loved! They talk about the success of Maphorisa co-headlining across the UK and having the first black sold-out show at the Ministry of Sound in London in nearly a decade. They discuss the session set up by Pie Radio where Maphorisa met young creatives who played music to him and gained his advice. Maphorisa says it’s important to him to share the amapiano sound and continue the legacy.
Maphorisa answers questions from the audience; how to maintain and cultivate work relationships as a producer, giving an example of Kabza De Small. He answers what’s the difference between the sounds of amapiano, gqom and kwaito and why amapiano has reached new heights. Maphorisa recommends artists to look out for including MDU aka TRP.
Shopsy speaks on the passing of African artists Hip Hop Pantsula and Riky Rick and Maphorisa shares his reaction, suggesting in these times we need to talk to and take care of each other. He gives advice on marketing amapiano and for young people in the music industry to keep pushing the sound. Maphorisa also reveals which track didn’t blow up as much as he thought it would and how he likes to see DJs dance!

I have always longed for an English interview of Dj Maphorisa and up until now, I haven’t found one properly done!
Thank you Pie Radio and the interviewer who had clearly done his research to help create this beautiful interview.
Dj Maphorisa is probably the goat of the new school in SA when it’s all said and done. This is awesome! 🙌🏾💥
You mean he can't speak English.
@MASWANGANYI PROPER They guys understood him. This English thing is not ours. Fuck English, this guy is Shangaan and grew up speaking Sepedi sa Pitori.
@@propermaswanganyi8386 no you said that. Clearly he can speak english.. what are you on about?
He did confess that English gives him a tough time and that’s why he doesn’t speak it
@@princethas2712 judging from this interview he can manage just fine. I think because he is soft spoken and also maybe not being very confident in english - most interviewers don’t even take that into account but they did well on Pie radio because he seemed very comfortable and as a result spoke more and stuff. I really enjoyed this one 👏🏾
This morning I listened to the the Uhuru album after years in the car. I used to pump it nonstop back in SA in 2014. It is such a timeless classic. Now I checked the booklet and learned that the guy who is one of the originators of amapiano has produced that album. Needless to say that I have been pumping amapiano heavily the last two years. I have been ignorant! Greetings from Germany
He is our national treasure I see him as Oscidos Successor.
Nobody in South Africa can get Phori to sit down with them like this and let him spill his beans
credit to the host, he did an amazing job
I don't know why Phori like mocking his English, he is speaking really well.
True
Good interview I like phori's friendship with wizkid..dope
@@amoschauke3889 Phori really knows how to friend , another good one is him and kabza
he can speak but typing it is another story for him😂🤞
For SAns to not lose ampiano, I think they should collaborate with international artist. Perfect example... if Maphorisa and Kabza could produce a track and then feature a Stomzy, and a SA artist like Dali or something in one song. That's would be like a cheat code co sign to the grammys or some shit.
we like your thinking, its coming
Maphorisa, Madumane are both Legendary already.
As for South African underground sounds, if you are producer and want to make it I would advise you come tour the night club life here, there is a lot you can take away(collaborate) that hasn't blow up yet. Sounds here are mad.
we're there shortly, where are you based?
@@PieRadioUK Pretoria, the capital city.
The knowledge he is dropping here 💌
So proud of Maphorisa 🤗🤗 piano mhlaba wonke🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧

The king Madumane !
What a modest legend❤
The Greatest Producer In Africa.
Go ahead and ask him to go live and produce a song. He will never do it. Just recently Usher rejected his boring production. He is a chancer this one. He will never produce a song in his life. He steals from artists and producers
@@thabanghoward 😂😂😂😂you're poor and stuck in SA, producing means bringing artists to make music and tell them which key is good for the song, wena you think making beatz means to produce😂😂🤡
Phori doesn’t miss…
Shout out to Pieradio!! Great platform, great interview!!!

@@PieRadioUK rebel wit no cous. I don't take instructions.

Thank you Phori
Im south African but it is 1st time seeing ur interview.
You are well soken,u really prapared urself 🙏🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾
Come to think of it... this is my first time seeing him doing an interview period. Done well bro. the english thing... mxm. Everyone now in SA speaks English like Ricky Rick, and his was made up by him, so le re issue kayona ke eng?
Madumzin ke star bafowethu
He doesn't normally do the interviews.
He's not fluent in English that's the reason 😂🤣
@@thokozanivictor107 that's not funny bro
@@thokozanivictor107 speaking fluent English wont pay his bills. He's busy making millions, the only thing you can say is about his English. Haibo wake up black child...
Fluency in English means nothing. You are like the youth of 76 who were fighting for studying in English instead of their mother tongues 👅
There is Subtitle English is not a gauge to test intelligence its just a Language like other languages @@thokozanivictor107
Madumane the ghost 👻 himself 🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦
No disrespect but bro Lerato was a banger🔥🔥
Have never heard maphorisa giving credit to kalawa.🤔🤔🤔
true...something is wrong
maybe this is the first time someone asked him the question
Kalawa made him and he knows Oskido is the one who put him on.
Same reason A-Reece never credit Ambitiouz🤡
Is that 1st dude who question Porry is he South African? Because yey he's accent hayikhona lol
Nigeria OG based in UK
Phori reminds me of 50 cent!!!🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
😂😂😂😂 his TV show is on the way
@@PieRadioUK Bouy reminds me of Q.🤣🤣🤣🤣im kidding....🤣
Everything is wrong with the subtitles
thats why its in English
This Guy literally Killed the Hip hop industry in SA. turned these Artist in Amapiano to stay relevant...
No it's not him. The people were just tired of hip hop, they wanted something of that amapiano 112bpm, thats it.
@@thabanghoward People do not really listen to Hip Hop anymore this side. These Artist barely release music.
Dance music had always been stronger so, I don’t feel he killed anything.
Maphorisa is gone gone
CLEAR
Phori and English don't mix 🤣 but it's okay though u can tell it's bad coz he can't express himself fully
His not English bro
he did a good job
@@hlempheabielsemelane3358 kanti mina ngitheni
so nigeria believe tht they can produce amapiano better those south africans? really
In their dreams, it originated here in SA and they’ll never produce the best. Amapiano is not new, been underground in Pretoria only for quite a long time
Thank you Phori 🥰
Not forgetting Kwaito influence on Amapiano, it’s very much alive and I like it
Imagine
They are so obsessed with anything and everything SA
In their dreams
SA blacks with English this and that blah blah blah. You are not English!!! This guy is expressing himself very well.
The scammer will scam u. This guy stole a lot from me and left me with nothing. But becos Im one of the best producers and singers in SA, my time is coming. He did and said bad things about me. He tripped and he'll pay for it. Karma is a serious bitch, she comes unanounced
That will delay your progress. focus do more music
Let the music do the talking boss. If you're the best we'll hear the music not your tears
Phori is very talented I think that's the reason most people are following him. If he did bad to you sorry, but this is a different story. Let's just learn to separate matters.
@@mphonancymohlaloga5147 u have a nerve to utter nonsense. U are of no help. Make yoself useful and go stream my music and stop thinking crap and attack me
I once saw your comment in another video I think you capping bro. Female tendencies as a nigga
Great interview
