DJ Lag
Lwazi Asanda Gwala, better known as DJ La is a South African DJ and record producer. He is regarded as one of the pioneers of gqom, a genre of electronic dance music that emerged in the early 2010s in Durban, South Africa. In 2019, DJ Lag notably collaborated with Tierra Whack, Beyoncé, Moonchild Sanelly, Nija, Yemi Alade and Busiswa on a track called "My Power”.
In late 2016 at the age of 21, DJ Lag made his live global debut at the Unsound Festival in Poland and finished up at Seoul's Cake Shop nearly a month later. Since then, he has performed at Afropunk New York City and secured a residency at RinseFM. He also embarked on a four-part worldwide tour called #GqomIsThePresent and was featured on BBC Radio 1, including shows by Diplo and Benji B, with a BBC Radio 1 Essential Mix set hosted by Pete Tong. DJ Lag was a featured speaker at the 2019 Amsterdam Dance Event (ADE).
