Seven months ago, Gigi Lamayne revealed how fed up she is of the South African Hip Hop industry, but little did anyone expect her to just throw in the towel. The femcee has announced that she is done with the genre and is already exploring other genres.
Gigi shared that she was told she is too dark skinned and ugly to make it in this industry, and it usually the artists with such mentality. “I’ve had to fight since I joined This industry. Your artists Are worse though. They are traitors to the culture . I was apparently too dark and ugly to make it now people wanna smile ? Why?” She then asked for people’s support when she finally decides to expose the industry, “You industry is the pits SA. I hope you’ll support me when it’s all said and done.”
Now, she has called it quits! Gigi is no longer feeling the vibe with SA Hip Hop, so she decided to move on to another genre. Whether she will still be rapping, time will tell but imagine Gigi rapping on a King Monada type beat.
“I am leaving South African Hip Hop, and it’s conventional ways of doing things. I will be experimenting with other genres. King Monada and myself are currently in studio.. a few people from other genres,” she said adding that she wants to expand her brand from just being a rapper.
“I do feel like the Hip Hop situation in South Africa right now is a little toxic in it’s own ways, and not to say I am completely detaching from that, but I am definitely going to be in my own lane,” she concluded.
