Ticket prices for the show have been set at E200 for General Admission and E350 for VIP, a small price to pay for a chance to experience one of Amapiano’s greatest live in action.
If you don’t know who Kabza De Small is, you’ve probably been living under a rock—or, at the very least, outside of the Amapiano universe.
Born Kabelo Motha, Kabza De Small is more than just a DJ and producer; he is a movement and a trailblazer who has played a crucial role in shaping the Amapiano sound.
His journey started back in 2009 when he began experimenting with different music genres, including Afro-house and EDM.
However, it wasn’t until 2018 that he truly hit his stride, becoming a key architect of the genre that would soon take South Africa and the world by storm.
His breakthrough came with hits like “Amabele Shaya” and “Umshove”, which quickly became street anthems and solidified his place in the industry.
His collaborations with DJ Maphorisa led to the birth of the now-legendary Scorpion Kings, a project that has produced hit after hit, from “Vula Vala” to “eMcimbini”, redefining what was possible within Amapiano music.
By 2019, he was crowned the most-streamed South African artist on Spotify, an achievement that spoke volumes about his influence.

And when he dropped his full-length debut album, “I Am The King of Amapiano: Sweet & Dust” in 2020, he did the unthinkable, he took over the charts with all 26 tracks from the album landing in the Top 30 of South Africa’s streaming charts.
With collaborations featuring African heavyweights like Wizkid, Burna Boy, Cassper Nyovest, Madumane (DJ Maphorisa), Shasha, and Focalistic, Kabza’s music transcends borders.
