DJ Bongz: How Arrogance Led to My 2-Year Fall from Music | Midday Connexion | Gagasi FM

With 25 years in the music industry, DJ Bongz has seen it all. He's experienced massive highs and devastating lows, and in this very open conversation with DJ Sonic and Khaya Mthethwa, he holds nothing back. He tells the story of his fall from grace between 2012 and 2014, a time when he admits to becoming arrogant, looking down on events, and burning bridges with the very people who supported him. When the bookings dried up, he found himself alone. Listen to his story of resilience and hear about: How he got his start as a dancer, not a DJ. The two-year period where he lost everything and had to humble himself. The making of his huge 2015 comeback hit, "Ofana Nawe." The surprising, organic origin of the famous Gwara Gwara dance. His strong advice to young artists about respect and having a side business. Why he believes social media beefs are destroying careers. The importance of keeping a small, trusted circle of friends. His new album and his work with up-and-coming talent. This is a rare and honest look into what it takes to survive and stay relevant in the South African music scene.
