Thuli Phongolo Allegedly Dumps 2Faced, Leaving Slenda Da Dancing DJ in Limbo
South African actress and DJ, Thuli Phongolo, is reportedly stirring up the entertainment scene, not only by allegedly parting ways with her boyfriend, DJ Maphorisa, but also by walking away from her DJ group, 2Faced. This move has left her former groupmate, Slenda Da Dancing DJ, in an uncertain position, with fans and industry insiders buzzing about what may come next.
Sources close to the situation claim that Phongolo’s decision to sever ties with the group wasnโt financially motivated, but rather about personal egos and the competitive nature of the industry. According to insiders, Thuli felt she was contributing more energy, followers, and star power to the group than Slenda Da Dancing DJ. The rise of DJ personalities like Uncle Waffles, who have carved out successful solo careers as both DJs and dancers, seems to have inspired Phongolo to follow a similar path.
โIt wasnโt about money but about who pulls the crowd. Thuli felt she could do more with her brand on her own, like Uncle Waffles is doing internationally,โ a source close to the matter shared. โAs a solo DJ, she wouldnโt have to split any income from gigs, and she could fully capitalize on her personal brand.โ
Another insider expressed concerns about Phongoloโs growing ego, suggesting that her attitude may hinder her future success. โThuli is so arrogant. She thinks sheโs a superstar, and itโs affecting her bookings. During the Durban July weekend, 2Faced wasnโt booked anywhere, all because of her ego. Meanwhile, groups like TXC are thriving,โ the source added.
Despite the breakup of 2Faced, there is optimism for Slenda Da Dancing DJโs solo prospects. Known for her musical background and experience as a former Afrotainment dancer, some believe she will have no trouble establishing herself as a solo act. โSlendaโs credentials speak for themselves. She has a deep understanding of the industry, and sheโll survive as a solo DJ,โ the insider noted.
While Phongoloโs decision may come as a shock to some fans, itโs clear that both she and Slenda Da Dancing DJ will face new challenges and opportunities as they embark on their individual paths in the highly competitive world of South African entertainment. Whether Thuliโs ambition to mirror the success of international stars will pay off remains to be seen, but one thing is certainโthis split has left a mark on the local DJ scene.
