Lady Du exhibits Asthma signs. The ‘uZuma Yi Star’ singer recently wrote on her Instagram that she has battled this condition all her life.

In fact, due to her under developed lungs, she isn’t supposed to work in the music industry so as not to strain her lungs.

But she does her thing behind the deck and mic anyway. In fact, her body mass is also too huge for her lungs according to doctors.

“Something personal I’d like to share with you guys, it has affected me for years. Since I was born I’ve had breathing problems, I cannot do anything active for more than a minute, but there’s something about why I feel like God gave me my musical talent,” she narrates.

“I can dance on stage for 25 minutes, pour my heart out but I won’t pass out. But as soon as I run for a minute I go straight to hospital. Every three months I go to the doctor so they can clean my system,” she added.

The Amapiano DJ told her fans that whenever they see her on stage, they should know that she is giving her best.

“I call it asthma because that’s what most people understand but my lungs, as I was told by the doctor, are underdeveloped and too small to carry my weight. When you see me on stage performing my best know that as hard as it is for me to breathe, I’m giving everything I have,” she said.
