Reason blasts Thakgi over his comments about Gigi Lamayne
Earlier on, Amapiano musician Sizwe Alakine, popularly known as Reason, threw a fit when he recently appeared on Thakgi’s podcast, which is part of the Podcast and Chill network. An enraged Reason defended his current girlfriend Gigi Lamayne after Thakgi suggested she is a downgrade compared to his baby mama Lootlove.
The outburst comes days after Gigi Lamayne and Reason, who have been rumoured to be dating since October 2024, seemingly confirmed their relationship. In the video, Reason savages Thakgi for comparing Gigi Lamayne to Lootlove. He suggests such comparisons promote negative beauty standards.
“What downgrade? What gives you the right to sit down and discuss another man’s relationship? What are you teaching these kids here? That oh yeah if you’re a girl that looks like Gigi in the public perception, you’re a downgrade compared to a girl that looks like Luthando in the public perception.”
