DJ Maphorisa has finally spoken out about his relationship with Podcast and Chill host Mac G, putting lingering rumours to rest in a candid Instagram Live session that sparked debate online.
The award-winning producer made it clear that he holds no grudges against Mac G but didn’t shy away from expressing caution when it comes to interacting with the outspoken podcaster.
Their history has been a rollercoaster, at one point, Mac G publicly supported Maphorisa amid accusations of exploitation, surprising many fans.

But tensions resurfaced when MacG later referred to Maphorisa as a “gatekeeper” in the music industry, a label that didn’t sit well with the Midnight Starring hitmaker.
During the livestream, Maphorisa acknowledged their rocky past but emphasized that he doesn’t have a personal issue with Mac G.
However, he warned that appearing on the podcast could be risky: “It’s dangerous to talk to him because the guest’s words get twisted,” he said, referencing similar concerns he raised during the Scotts Maphuma saga.
A snippet of the video, posted on social media by @Mo_D1d on Wednesday, 4 June 2025, quickly went viral and divided opinions.
Some praised the producer for keeping it real, while others advised him to steer clear of the podcast altogether.
“Phori is very sweet behind the scenes. The problem is people always judge the book by its cover,” commented @Van_De_Deputy.
Meanwhile, @NanahShaka39567 cautioned, “Don’t go there Phori, he will reveal all your scandals that boy.”
