Having been brought up in Mabopane before relocating to Ga-Rankuwa, Lebogang who is popularly known by her stage name, Dj Lady Inferno revealed that being a female Dj in a male-dominated industry is not easy.
While speaking to Tshwane Bulletin, Lady Inferno said, “Being a female DJ is hard. To be clear and honest, some event organisers are perverts, and after rejecting them, you won’t get gigs from them or the other event organisers that they know. It’s sad knowing that as female djs some of us have to use our bodies to get gigs, but even today still I took the hard path, my dignity is more important to me, I would rather have no gig at all than to give myself to a man who I’m not interested in just to score a gig. It happens to a lot of female djs and most of them keep quiet about it”.
Despite the challenges that come with being a female Dj, Lady Inferno said that she has always been passionate about music, further adding that she regarded it as a gift.
“Lady inferno is a brand that has been in the music industry for about 11 years now, I started playing in 2010 , I remember it just like yesterday. Right after my first lesson; DJ Kay-9ine (the person who taught me how to play after being rejected by a dj who I won’t be able to mention due to the fact that I wasn’t financially stable to pay for lessons) took me to his gigs and started sharing them with me the first day he s
She went on to say, “Few years later I went independent and started preparing my own music for gigs and volunteering at some gigs as it was difficult to get gigs without my teacher, but I still stayed because of the passion that I have for serving music to multiple crowds”.
Asked about the highlights of her journey as a Dj, Lady Inferno pinpointed the interview she had with TV show, Selimathunzi as well as being selected to partake in the DenimDieselFriday competition.
“I really admire myself as a DJ, I actually am the one motivating myself to keep pushing, because I’ve been through a lot as a dj but I’m still pushing so I can see myself achieving a lot from my music career and I have passion for it. I would like to see myself being an international DJ at some point in my life but I have learnt that its not easy to make it for some of us.
