Viral Reactions and Clarification
Controversial blogger Musa Khawula quickly added fuel to the speculation by reposting the video with a claim that Gigi was “launching her DJ career.” That post triggered debate on social media, with users questioning how female artists often transition into DJing and whether such pivots are taken seriously.
But Gigi didn’t let the rumour mill spin out of control. In a sharp and direct follow-up, she reiterated:
“Remember… I AM NOT A DJ! Tour dates dropping soon!”
Her clarification drew both laughter and praise, as fans and peers applauded her ability to challenge norms while keeping control of her narrative.
A New Chapter, Not Reinvention
Rather than signaling a complete career switch, Gigi’s “#IAMNOTADJ” campaign appears to be a bold reinvention of her performance style — merging her rap roots with unexpected live experiences and cross-genre experimentation.
The series promises to break down traditional boundaries between artist and audience, turning her sets into expressive, dynamic showcases.
For Gigi, this isn’t about abandoning her identity as a rapper — it’s about pushing creative limits. Whether she’s on the mic or behind the decks, one thing is clear: she’s always in control of the conversation.
Keeping the Industry Talking
As one of South Africa’s most versatile artists, Gigi Lamayne has proven time and again that she’s unafraid of evolution. With this new initiative, she’s not only sparking speculation but also challenging expectations of what female rappers can do — and how they do it.
With tour dates expected to be announced soon, fans are eager to see what the “#IAMNOTADJ” experience will look like live. And if Gigi’s track record is anything to go by, it will be bold, unexpected, and unforgettable.
