Makhadzi Irked by Chris Brown’s Lightning Speed Sellout
Local South African artist Makhadzi has expressed disappointment at the fact that tickets for her upcoming event at Peter Bokaba Stadium have not been sold out yet but Chris Brown’s showed were now sold out.
International superstar Chris Brown sold out in just two hours, and because of this, another date has been added to his concert.
The star told the media that local South African artists needed the support from the local people, just as much as international artists, the priority should be local.
She said: “It's really discouraging to see international artists selling out fast while we don't get the same support. It kills our industry. I hope this will one day change.”
In a tweet last night, Makhadzi appealed to fans to go out in numbers to purchase tickets for her upcoming show.

“South Africa ke movie (SA is a movie), so it must take 10 years to sell out Peter Mokaba Stadium, and you gave Chris Brown 2 hours. Yoo lena le chelete (You guys have money). Gale bona batho lena lebo hyper nyana Shem. Rekang di tickets before kella (please buy tickets before I cry).”
Makhadzi will have a one woman show at the Peter Mokaba Stadium on 21 December. She had the same event last year. Last week, she released a new album titled ‘Miracle Child'.
