Some people were not as impressed. Some argued that she was not spinning the decks and was playing a pre-recorded mix.

@ndondz noted:

"We see her. But, the amount of sound used these days for DJ monitoring is insane. Enough to cover 100 people + only for monitors."

@itsjayarii argued:

"Nah, t's not all that."

@louiehndrx stated:

"I'm convinced most of these female DJs have a pre-recorded mix on a USB and then they lip sync the deck by pressing/moving random nobs, etc to make it seem like they're doing something. This is true! It's just that I can't prove it."

@PreciousTahita shared:

"Until I hear her properly mixing Neo's Love Song on Mambotjie beat! Then she is just another female DJ. Not the metro type, but another one of those."

@Corporategirl6 shared:

"Thuli P is gorgeous, man."

@bodva_6 argued:

"Lol, I ain't seen these mamies work the decks..it's always clips of them dancing and shii."

@Doskie14 asked:

"Did they all play this song?"

@louiehndrx exclaimed:

"One day is one day!"
