Amapiano star Kabza De Small must be on cloud nine after making history at a packed-out concert at the Lyric Theatre in Gold Reef City.
The Woza DJ performed alongside Ofentse Pitse and several other artists at the Red Bull Symphonic Orchestra show. The night’s showstopper was when he brought DJ Maphorisa onto the stage.
The two music producers were said to have beef and called it quits as the Scorpion Kings. But those were quickly put to rest following their stellar collaboration over the weekend.
Industry peers soon took to social media to congratulate the award-winning star for pulling off the show of the year.
Grammy winner Black Coffee gave Kabza his flowers and said: “Congrats on everything King.”
Kabza also thanked DJ Maphorisa for making his light shine stronger: “Brother thank you.”
