After what was an epic showcase of talent and creativity, it appears that South Africans were not the only ones left in awe of Chris Brown’s recent tour to South Africa.

The multi-award-winning musician recently travelled across the world to host a two-day sold-out concert at Johannesburg’s infamous FNB Stadium. An event many claim was the perfect return of the singer after being away from South African shores for numerous years.

Chris captivated crowds with some of his greatest hits with songs like Say Goodbye, Wall to Wall, Look at Me Now and several others – among these was a hit song No Air which was released in 2008 and features American Idol winner Jordan Sparks.

Video footage from the concert shows Chris performing the Grammy Award-winning hit song to his Mzansi audience to which a crowd of 94 000 people began singing along. The video has since circulated on social media platforms leaving Jordin in awe of the love it received.

Taking to X (formerly known as Twitter), she reshared the iconic moment sharing how in awe she was of the performance.

“I’ll never get over this. So many voices singing my song!! Appreciate him taking my voice all over the world!” she wrote.

Meanwhile, many of her fans later commented highlighting how much more special it would have been if she had come to South Africa to perform the song alongside him.

This was not the first time Chris performed the song at one of his concerts. Earlier this year a video trended after he performed it in Los Angeles while Jordin herself was singing along in the crowd.

She later shared the moment on TikTok.
