Popular DJ and host, Dineo Ranaka opens up on how she was helped by DJ Hazel and saved from embarrassment at a recent gig.
Dineo Ranaka recently shared that she was booked to MC and DJ at a gig for Truelove’s All A Woman Needs event and almost embarrassed herself and her clients because she had forgotten her USB at home. However, with the help of DJ Hazel, who gave her a USB, she avoided embarrassment and played at the event.
She said,
“I had retired my USBs and took them out of my DJ bag, and placed them in a safe place at home. I took my DJ bag to the booking, but ZERO USBs,”
“I then realised that there is no USB. Stress out, I asked fellow DJ, @hazelonig, if I could use her USBs, and she let me. I have not been so humbled in a while!”
She continued, “Moral of the story. Trust your humility and ask for help. Help is always willing to help, ONLY if it is truly needed. Also, women really do support each other. THANK YOU HAZEL!”
Hazel also replied, “If ska jumpisa was a person, it would be you Dineo, you carried that set so beautifully and got us all on our feet, nobody would’ve guessed what happened backstage.”
She adviced Dineo to return to the decks because of how good she is at it.
“You’re a G because my folders and USBs are such a mess please come back to the game, you belong behind the decks. I wish you well, my sister particularly on your coming project. Thank you so much for embracing me the way you did, I genuinely felt loved and acknowledged by you yesterday, something I don’t get in this industry. You’re energy, oh my goodness. Bless you.”
