DJ Speedsta Allegedly Warns Thakgi in Voice Notes, Music Pulse Podcast Laughs Him Off

• DJ Speedsta allegedly sent threatening voice notes to Thakgi, reportedly at quarter past three in the morning
• The Music Pulse podcast team played the audio on air, with Nota, Sfiso, and Thakgi visibly unimpressed
• Thakgi questioned whether she was supposed to feel intimidated, while Sfiso asked 'who is he?' about Speedsta

DJ Speedsta has found himself at the centre of social media chatter after threatening voice notes he allegedly sent to Music Pulse host Thakgi were played on the podcast. The clip, which surfaced on X on 16 September 2026, shows the podcast team reacting to the audio in real time — and they were far from rattled.

The podcast, also branded as Chillers Punch, filmed the reaction segment on their colourful studio set complete with neon signage and studio monitors. On-screen text read "DJ Speedsta threatened Thakgi 😭😭😭," setting the tone before the voice notes even played.

Speedsta's voice notes fall flat

In the recordings, Speedsta is heard warning Thakgi to "watch your mouth, my dog," repeatedly, before sending a second message directed at him with similarly aggressive language. What made the moment particularly awkward was the timing — Thakgi pointed out that the messages came in at quarter past three in the morning, and he questioned aloud whether he was supposed to feel scared.

Sfiso, co-hosting the segment, barely held back as he asked, "Who is he?" while Nota's reaction drew its own attention. The panel's general consensus was clear: Speedsta's threats did not land the way he may have intended.
