Kabza De Small and DJ Maphorisa’s Private Shopping in Louis Vuitton Store Sparks a Stir

South Africa’s finest musicians, Scorpion Kings – DJ Maphorisa and Kabza De Small, are not only shutting down shows but also luxury brand stores.

The duo recently stirred controversy by shutting down a Louis Vuitton store in London for a private shopping experience.

The Scorpion Kings are well-known for their contributions to the Amapiano music genre and their lavish lifestyle, but this time, their actions have sparked a wave of criticism on social media.

Fans and critics alike have taken to social media to voice their disapproval, accusing the DJs of being out of touch with the economic realities facing many of their supporters.

“Rich black people are pathetic. All they do is this pathetic show-off, next thing they’ll be pleading poverty and asking for donations. While their white peers are busy building legacies,” wrote one user on X.

“This is definitely not something to be shown. Yes, they work hard for their money. We have an LV in SA manned by SAs. They could easily shop here, contribute to the SA economy, and pay tips to SA LV employees. One wonders if they even contribute to communities where they come from?” commented another user.

“All good and well, it’s their money. However, for me, I think it would be even doper if I could see them do this with our SA brands like David Tlale, Maxhosa, or Rich Mnisi. If they’ve done that before, well then great,” added another Twitter user.

As of now, neither DJ Maphorisa nor Kabza De Small has publicly responded to the criticism, leaving fans wondering how they will address the situation.
