DJ Fae Fae Makes Her Mark in the Industry as the 2026 Radio Year Begins
Talented DJ, Radio Host, MC and Content Producer, Faith Makubung, better known as “DJ Fae Fae“, is set and focused on growing her brand as the industry ushers in a brand new radio year.
The fabulous YFM DJ continues to host another season of ‘All Girls On Deck (AGOD)‘ every Saturday from 6PM to 8PM – placing female DJs on the map and shining a light on their music and more. This year, DJ Fae Fae is also working on an All Girls On Decks live experience that will bring live music to the people.
As she continues to build her brand in the industry, “Fae Fae” is currently at Boston Media House, studying Music Production and planning on making it a focus for her to acquire new skills. She plans on adding the Producer title to her growing ventures, as she is on a mission to learn the process of producing her own music.
Determined not to be stopped in her creativity, Fae Fae has a dream to launch a hair business and has started the journey of taking on wig-making classes. She strongly believes that graduating from wig-making school will lead to her eventually launching and selling an exciting hair journey business.
With plenty of big plans for her career and brand this year, Fae Fae has plans for her birthday event, a Winter tour, curating something special for Women’s Month and to chase the Summer as much as she can with travel and work opportunities. She aims to unlock female DJs’ potential in Africa and catapult their careers through her work on All Girls On Deck.
Says DJ Fae Fae: “This year already feels exciting, I am ready to take my career, brand and other parts of my life to greater heights. I have come a long way and have learned so much. I plan on levelling up my skill set – be it going back to school, starting a business or taking All Girls On Deck on tour. I want the world to know that yes we look good, but we really also do know how to actually DJ. We are growing a community of female DJs, not only in South Africa, but throughout Africa and ultimately the rest of the world. It’s time to embrace female DJs and recognise our talent altogether because we are here to stay. Through my platforms and opportunities, elevating women is my end goal, while enjoying the journey.”
