Despite a frosty recent history, the two have collaborated for some of the biggest and most memorable moments in SA dance music. Fans flooded the comments section to express their wishes for Bantwini to join him.

“Imagine if ZAKES BANTWINI slid down the stage for a surprise performance 🔥🔥🔥,” one fan commented on Instagram. Another added, “Zakes to make a surprise visit 😢😢.” @blessingjr also weighed in, “Where is Zakes Bantwini? Is there a typo?”

The eagerly anticipated concert is set to be a historic moment for the ‘Drive’ hitmaker.

When he steps onto the arena on October 7, Black Coffee will become the first African DJ and the first South African artist to ever headline Madison Square Garden.

Ahead of the concert, the world renowned DJ recently announced that he would be teaming up with Castle Lite for an exclusive Johannesburg send-off to celebrate with local music fans who won’t be able to join him abroad.

The alcohol giant shared with IOL Entertainment that the collaboration will see the two brands team up to give 1 000 fans an “ultimate experience and a true South African-style send-off” at an undisclosed venue in Johannesburg on September 28.
