According to sources close to the jailed kwaito star, the Sweety My Baby hitmaker feels that a life in the spotlight would be too much of a distraction for his son. However, the young performer, Gugulethu Cleopas Ndlovu, who goes by the alias, Google Da DJ, is defiant as he has been getting high profile bookings recently. “The boy is doing well as a DJ and is continuously winning competition challenges on Jozi FM, and people are booking him and demanding a release of his single but his father wants him to put his head towards his books,” said the source.
“This situation has created a family feud as some family members feel the boy must continue with music rather than focusing on his studies because they’re seeing the results that he is doing great with his DJing.” The young DJ’s grandmother, Adelaide Mabaso, said was aware of the pressure that the young DJ was facing, but thought it best if he listened to his father as he had knowledge of showbiz. “I’m aware of his disagreement with his father regarding him DJing over his studies.
At least he is getting free advice from somebody who’s been in the music industry. His father knows what he is talking about,” she said. “It’s often that we as parents get into disagreements with our children but most of the time it’s about education over fun times.
“I mean he can continue with his DJing after completing his matric, it’s not like we are saying he must abandon his talent altogether.”.
