MBABANE - Over 20 emaSwati collectively contributed to part of the staggering
E100 million generated at the recent Chris Brown concerts.
The American superstar performed two sold-out shows at FNB Stadium on December
14 and 15, making history by selling out the largest stadium in South Africa,
which boasts a capacity of 94,736. Both nights were met with overwhelming
enthusiasm from fans, further solidifying the artist's immense popularity in the
region.
The minimum ticket price for the event was set at E600. When this figure is
multiplied by the stadium's full attendance, it amounts to an impressive E56.8
million for a single show. With two performances, it is estimated that Chris
Brown grossed a minimum of E113 million. Among the throngs of fans were over 20
emaSwati who significantly contributed to the American singer's earnings that
day.
Notable attendees included Tenele Dlamini, Lindo Dube, Noxolo Motha, Nolwazi
Mhlongo, and Nelile Mhlongo, among others. Tenele Dlamini remarked, “The whole
concert was epic. From the setup to the performance by the G.O.A.T. himself. For
me, this was a dream come true. If he ever comes back, I'm definitely
attending.” Lindo Dube echoed this sentiment, stating, “It was easily the
most incredible experience. The man is truly a superstar and delivered an
outstanding performance. He showcased all the songs one could possibly desire,
and his dance moves were electrifying! Chris Brown is an entertainer and
undoubtedly a G.O.A.T.”
Nolwazi Mhlongo added, “I have always wanted to attend a Chris Brown concert,
and when it was announced that he would be performing in South Africa, I ensured
I was there. It was the best experience ever. I cherished every moment, and I
wish it had never ended. Chris Brown is a phenomenal performer, and he sang all
my favourite songs, especially 'Residuals.'”
Chris Brown's performances were a dazzling spectacle that captivated the
audience from start to finish. He opened with high-energy tracks that set the
tone for the evening, including "Run It!", "No Guidance", and "Loyal". As the
concert progressed, he continued to enthral the crowd with his extensive
setlist, which featured fan-favourites such as "Forever", "With You", "Go
Crazy", and "Residuals". Each song was accompanied by his signature dance moves,
impressive choreography, and a vibrant stage presence that kept the energy
levels soaring throughout the night.
Chris Brown’s remarkable achievement in selling out FNB Stadium not only
highlights his global appeal but also marks a significant milestone in the South
African music scene, showcasing the power of live entertainment to unite fans in
celebration of music.
