Rapper Gigi Lamayne, who recently released a single Menzi Ngubane, starred in Disney +'s Kizazi Moto, has a podcast and can add reality TV star to the many hats she wears. 

Kizazi Moto: Generation Fire draws on the continent’s rich and diverse histories and cultures, featuring bold and brave new worlds of advanced technology, aliens, spirits and monsters.

Gigi tells TshisaLIVE that starring in the animation series was a dream come true because of the level of the show.

“The are many things that I said I was going to do in my life and I didn't think it was going to happen in my twenties. To be in a space like that and to be trusted with the main character of one of the episodes was crazy. I really have started to believe in manifestation a lot and I guess it speaks to the Disney dream and what happened with Kizazi Moto.”

Gigi has embraced her bumpy journey and says she is now putting her energy into brand Gigi Lamayne.

“My dream is for Gigi Lamayne to become a brand not just an artist because when you become a brand it is easy for the artistry to live in different spaces and that's what I want for myself. I'm definitely living that dream, It has not been realised, I'm not even where I want to be. There are so many things I want to do with my life.”
