A big weekend for Inkabi Zezwe in Cape Town which began on Friday, 28 July where fans of the duo had a chance to meet the ‘Umbayimbayi’ hitmakers at the Shesha store in Canal Walk. Including ticket giveaways for the show, Inkabi Zezwe took snaps with supporters as well as signed autographs.
The second leg of the four—city tour took place on Saturday 29 July where Inkabi Zezwe were met with a packed Grandwest Arena, their second show to sell out after the success of the Sunbet Arena in Pretoria (24 June). Fans enjoyed opening performances by Inkabi Nation’s Mduduzi Ncube who performed his new single ‘Njalo’. Other opening acts included Xowla and Siya Ntuli and Cape Town-based upcoming Hip Hop artist Bravo Le Roux. Like the previous show, Ingoma dancers electrified the stage with their performance which signaled the colossal tune ‘Intro (Inkabi Zezwe)’.
In addition to all the tracks on the Ukhamba album, Inkabi Zezwe performed songs from their solo catalogs, satisfying both Sjava and Big Zulu fans. The show closed with fan-favorite ‘Umbayimbayi’ which, as ever, set the house on fire, solidifying why the hit song was #1 on South African radio for six weeks, has reached Double Platinum status in South Africa, and most recently been nominated for ‘Song of the Year’ at the DSTV Content Creators Awards. Voting for the category and fans can vote for ‘Umbayimbayi’ on the official website HERE. Voting closes on 23 August.
