The Gcwalisa I-Orlando Maskandi Concert is a historic concert organised by the most popular and award-winning maskandi artist at the moment, Khuzani Mpungose, also known as Indlamlenze & Inkosi kaMaskandi, the King of Maskandi music.
Some of his fans simple call him King Khuba, as Khuba is his clan name (isithakazelo). He is preparing to make history in Soweto by filling up the Orlando Stadium, something that no other artist has ever done before.
He plans to have about 37 000 maskandi fans from all over the country coming to see him live at this iconic Stadium in the city of Johannesburg, eGoli, Gauteng.
This will be the ultimate Maskandi experience. Khuzani aims to put the maskandi music genre on the map by filling the stadium with Maskandi musicians and lovers from across the country. It will be the 2nd of its kind after the success of Gcwalisa iMabhida show in Durban last year 2019.
Maskandi musicians from around the country are expected to be part of the event in an effort to boost the music genre. Khuzani feels that the Maskandi genre of music is still being undermined and overlooked.
This elegant maskandi music concert is a meeting point for all the greatest maskandi musicians and the concept behind this concert is to uplift the status of maskandi music by taking it to the next level by working with all the maskandi crowd-pullers. This concert will be led by Khuzani himself.
For this particular event, Khuzani was inspired by Hip Hop artist Cassper Nyovest with his #FillUpTheDome and #FillUpMosesMabhida events. Khuzani believes that he also has enough support to fill up the Orlando Stadium Stadium. He’s now calling for unity among maskandi artists in order to uplift this unique style of music.
