Many say amapiano has appropriated the music scene, because of DJ Maphorisa, but he still thinks gqom may be a bomb genre.

Maphorisa, who has been hailed as a musical genius and noted for turning everything he touches into gold, said gqom wasn’t “trash”, as people say it’s .

Lately, Mzansi has been mesmerised by the amapiano wave, and therefore the Amantombazane hitmaker felt they were being ignorant to the very fact that gqom was still the most important musical genre in SA.

To convey his message, Maphorisa took to Twitter in an effort to remind folks that gqom produced banger hits like My Power, featuring Beyoncé and our very own Moonchild and Busiswa. He also tweeted:

“Guys, you cannot say gqom is trash while [SA] features a song with Beyoncé ya gqom le di bare mara.

In an effort to prove his point, Maphorisa asked fans if they wanted him to drop a gqom EP next week to prove the genre still slaps.

“Gqom fans do u still want me to try to to gqom music. l can drop an EP next week only for control. Yes or No?

Some admired his efforts to offer props to gqom. Others were against him releasing an EP, saying it had been nothing but loud music.
