Lwazi Asanda Gwala, better known as DJ Lag, is a South African DJ and record producer. He is regarded as one of the pioneers of gqom, a genre of electronic dance music that emerged in the early 2010s in Durban, South Africa. In 2019, DJ Lag notably collaborated with Tierra Whack, Beyoncé, Moonchild Sanelly, Nija, Yemi Alade and Busiswa on a track called “My Power” on Beyoncé’s album, The Lion King: The Gift.

With aspirations of becoming a soccer player growing up in Durban, Lag suffered an ankle injury which derailed his pursuits. His cousin, a rapper within the Durban hip hop scene at the time, then introduced him to FL Studio, on which he taught himself to produce. Following this, he began to explore DJing. He went on to play his first gig at Durban’s club Uhuru during a high school graduation event while he was in 10th grade. Gwala completed his matric at Wyebank Secondary School located in Wyebank, KwaZulu-Natal.

Releasing his first EP on WhatsApp, DJ Lag began his career using methods unorthodox to Western distribution methods common in gqom’s formative years. Fans signed up on the DJ’s website with the promise that an exclusive EP would be delivered to them via the mobile messaging app free of charge. DJ Lag’s specific style is known to be focused on what local producers dubbed “uthayela” (an isiZulu word for “corrugated iron”) which describes the rough timbre and hard bass-lines specifically made for listening to in club settings.

Was a good year for friends ❤️

Felt like I got outside a lot more this year, saw some longtime favorites I hadn’t seen post-plague, met-up with some favorites I had never actually met.

Hope to do even more friending next year!

Happy new years, fuck the hellscape 👊🏻 by @revdrquam
