Waffles is very new to the celebrity scene, having only recently learned to DJ during the Covid-19 pandemic.
A video of her performing on the decks went viral a few months ago.
She has since become one of Mzansi’s favorite DJs with her career skyrocketing from performing in the country to performing internationally.
