Murdah Bongz Accused of Skipping Eastern Cape Show After Receiving R40k+ Payment



Beloved musician Murdah Bongz, known for his work with Black Motion and as DJ Zinhle’s husband, is facing backlash after allegedly failing to show up for a scheduled performance in the Eastern Cape. The artist reportedly canceled the gig at the last minute, citing health reasons, but was later seen performing at another event in Johannesburg.


Murdah Bongz’s Alleged No-Show


According to a statement shared by @MDNnewss, Murdah Bongz was paid R45,000 to perform at Jola Cafe in Sterkspruit. However, he allegedly canceled the event hours before it was set to begin, claiming health issues. Jola Cafe management expressed frustration, stating they had already paid him in full and incurred additional costs for stage and sound hire.

The situation escalated when it was revealed that Murdah Bongz performed at a Johannesburg event on the same day, leading to accusations of unprofessionalism and dishonesty.


Mixed Reactions from Mzansi

The allegations have sparked heated debates online, with fans and critics divided over the incident. Some have called for accountability, while others believe the artist should be given a chance to explain himself.

Here’s what some netizens had to say:

  • @Mokongwane: “It was an honest mistake, man. Give him a break. He’s a good guy. He’ll come next time.”

  • @NkagiM_: “A refund won’t cover their losses. Who’s liable for stage and sound hire? They should take him to court.”

  • @ZikhaliBandile: “Why don’t South African artists take Eastern Cape events seriously? This isn’t the first time—Somizi and Young Stunna did the same thing.”

  • @NSourceing: “Thabo Smol was never the problem. I now know who the problem was in Black Motion.”

Murdah Bongz’s Past Controversies


This is not the first time Murdah Bongz has been at the center of controversy. In 2023, he made headlines when Black Motion, the iconic South African DJ duo, disbanded. Murdah Bongz, who was one half of the group, later rebranded himself as Mörda and launched a successful solo career.

Despite his musical success, this recent incident has raised questions about his commitment to honoring professional commitments.


Murdah Bongz Teases New Album

Amid the controversy, Murdah Bongz has been teasing his upcoming album, Asante III, named after his daughter with DJ Zinhle. Fans have expressed excitement about the project, but the recent allegations have cast a shadow over his professional reputation.


Fans Rally Behind Murdah Bongz


Despite the backlash, many fans continue to support the artist, urging him to address the situation and make amends. Some have called for a rescheduled performance, while others believe the matter should be resolved privately.
