South African house sensation Zakes Bantwini (@ZakesBantwiniSA) and Nigerian
high-life guru, Flavour (@flavournabania) are joining the “all star’ line-up at MTV Africa
All Stars – KwaZulu-Natal, a sensational open-air concert brought to viewers by MTV
Base (DStv Channel 322) and the KwaZulu-Natal province.
Bantwini and Flavour join US entertainment icon and multi-platinum hip hop star
turned reggae artist Snoop Lion (@SnoopLion), also known as Snoop Dogg, at the
five-hour open air concert at the Moses Mabhida Stadium in People’s Park Durban on
Saturday 18 May.
Flavour N’abania, also known as Chinedu Okoli, continues to be Africa’s most
requested artist after his continental smash hit Nwa Baby Remix and his hugely
successful collaborations with Tiwa Savage and Fally Ipupa.
Zakes Bantwini is one of SA’s most prolific live performers and his songs Wasting My
Time, Bum Bum and Karolina are regularly played across the continent and have all
been remixed by some of the biggest names in house.
Alex Okosi, senior vice president and managing director of Viacom International Media
Networks (VIMN) said on behalf of MTV Base, “We are delighted to welcome two such
popular artists like Zakes Bantwini and Flavour to Durban’s shores for MTV Africa All
Stars – KwaZulu-Natal. With Snoop Lion already confirmed, all eyes are going to be
focused on KwaZulu-Natal as we put our hearts and souls into making this the music
event of the year.”
