DJ Maphorisa is not happy with a resident DJ who tried to cut short his performance on Sunday. He took to Twitter to vent his frustration, saying some DJs think it's a competition when they all play in clubs.

Some resident DJs have f**ked up mentality, I swear, thinking its competition. I will tell you when I'm done DJing, don't come with ur laptop acting fresh, I will embarrass [you] in front of ur girl mxm,” he tweeted

He did not say where the incident happened but he had shared on Instagram earlier that he would be playing at Propaganda nightclub in Pretoria. He was not well received by one fan who accused him of “hogging the table” beyond the agreed time.

The fan asked why would he refuse to let the other DJs perform if they are also included in the line-up. Phori dared the Twitter user to remove him.

“Try it then, let's see,” he said. 

Some fans suggested that he should have addressed the matter with the resident DJ rather than vent about it on social media. Others said he must respect other DJs and not perform beyond his allocated time.
