Gigi Lamayne Graces Spotify’s Hip Hop Circle Cover Ahead of ‘Doves And Scones’ Album Release

Gigi Lamayne Graces Spotify’s Hip Hop Circle Cover Ahead of ‘Doves And Scones’ Album Release. South African rap royalty Gigi Lamayne is back in the spotlight, and this time she’s soaring higher than ever. Virgin Music Group took to social media earlier today to announce that Gigi is the face of Spotify Africa’s Hip Hop Circle cover this week—a huge nod to her influence as one of the continent’s most dynamic hip-hop artists.

The announcement came hot on the heels of a fiery episode of Piano Pulse’s podcast, where fellow rapper Reason—who also happens to be Gigi’s boyfriend—stormed the platform in an impassioned defence of the rap queen following comments that she’s a “downgrade” to Reason’s baby mama LootLove. The viral moment has only intensified the buzz around Gigi’s upcoming project, Doves And Scones, set to drop on March 28th.

“S/O @SpotifyAfrica for hooking up our partner @Gigi_Lamayne on this week’s HipHop Circle Cover,” Virgin Music Group shared on X, alongside a pre-save link for the highly anticipated album.

Prior to the announcement, Gigi Lamayne recently dropped Bleed Mama, a soulful and emotionally charged collaboration with Emtee and rising star Nathan Blur. The track, which pays homage to mothers and the sacrifices they make, has struck a deep chord with listeners and is rapidly gaining traction across streaming platforms.

With Reason publicly riding for her and Spotify giving her a prime spotlight, it’s clear that all roads lead to March 28th. Whether you’re here for the music or the drama, one thing’s for sure: Gigi Lamayne’s moment is now.
