So much money for entertainment? Not a damn chance 😂, but a fool and his money are soon parted, let them enjoy.

@kingscelo_05;

The only explanation here is money laundering, no way someone can be paid this kind of money for few hours.

@dmpanduki14;

That’s a fair amount , that money is already made from gate takings , VIP section, the profit is still made from the drinks .

@DjKabaza;

Iyoooo they can keep their music banna…Why should one pay for transport and accommodation plus security it’s does not make ant sense .it should be their responsibility.

@ScelloG;

Here we are talking about Kabza and Dj Maphorisa, two of them. They are the GOATs of Amapiano. Very reasonable
