Uncle Waffles recently proved that while she’s known for her infectious energy on stage and behind the decks, she has zero patience for those questioning her authenticity.

The Yahyuppiyah hitmaker found herself at the centre of a social media storm after a fan accused her of faking a bad girl persona for the cameras, even claiming that she was being forced to put on the act.

This, after the DJ updated her social media gallery with new pictures on 12 February 2026 and seemingly signalled a sequel to her 2024 project, 4 da Ho’s, in her caption.

Keeping to her edgy, eclectic style, Waffles wore tight-fitting, cut-out leather pants with a crop-top and platinum blonde hair. However, X (formerly Twitter) user Anunakin claimed that this wasn't who she is.

"I don’t have the right words for it, but this isn’t you, man. You’re clearly a good girl. I don’t know why they have you pushing this aesthetic."

According to the user, Waffles is simply a "good girl" at heart whose edgy new image is a forced industry stunt rather than her real personality, reducing her provocative, fashion-forward style to a mere marketing strategy. However, Waffles, never one to let a stranger define her identity, fired back with a response that was as sharp as her eyeliner.

"Don’t you have family to worry about? Why are you so concerned about strangers like this? Omg, I hope you get help."

The "aesthetic" the fan was referencing was in relation to the derogatory term in Waffles' album title, which, historically, was rooted in shaming those who were sexually liberated.

Today, it's used to describe an edgy, hyper-feminine person who embraces confidence and overturns the "girl-next-door" stereotype, someone who defies conservative social norms regarding dating and fashion.

"It came from a good place, though."

Meanwhile, like Waffles, others simply reminded the fan that their feelings about the DJ's wardrobe and fashion aesthetic were none of her business.

1chunbun asked:

"No, because what do you mean that a stranger is worried about someone who isn’t in any danger whatsoever?"
