Fans Ditch Glamis Arena as Mapfumo Jnr Took Stage Moments After Winky D, JP’s Explosive Sets

By Loyd Matare 

Glamis Arena throbbed with heat, hype and heavy bass until the mood flipped in minutes.

Moments after dancehall giant Winky D wrapped up his explosive set, fans began streaming out of the venue as DJ Fantan dropped the bombshell announcement that Mapfumo Jnr was next on stage.

The exit was swift, loud and telling, turning what should have been a smooth transition into an awkward comedown.

The night had started on a high, with Killer T opening the show and instantly igniting the arena with his 2025 hit Kana Ndanyura, sending early arrivals into a frenzy.

At exactly midnight, Jah Prayzah took charge, delivering a solid hour-long performance packed with crowd favourites and polished theatrics.

But it was Winky D, the Mugarden hitmaker, who truly owned Glamis, storming the stage from 1:30am to 3am with two straight hours of raw, electrifying energy that left fans spent and satisfied.

By the time Mapfumo Jnr’s name was called, many had clearly seen their climax and voted with their feet.
