He was booked to perform at the Frere Summer Party at Underground Pub in Mount Frere in the Eastern Cape last weekend. But Young Stunna, real name Sandile Fortune Msimango is said to have gotten into an altercation, that resulted in him leaving the venue without performing.
THROWING TANTRUMS
A guest, present at the event says Young Stunna received his payment but was making a scene. "Firstly, it was a cold and rainy day. The grass was wet, he refused to walk on the muddy path and he was basically behaving like a diva, almost undermining everyone," the guest adds. "He arrived at the venue, eventually after agreeing to walk through the mud with his new shoes. The owner offered that the bouncer carry him across." The guest says, "When he arrived at the section that was allocated for him and his team, he asked that the local artist by the name of Mr Vee Sholo who was sharing the section with him be moved. When that didn't happen, Young Stunna then threw a tantrum and left and refused to perform." Mr Vee Sholo says, the drama started at the guest house where they were all booked. "He first refused to let me drive in the same car as him, so I walked to the venue. Then at the VIP section, he said he will not sit with strangers."
THE PROMOTER
The event organiser of the event has since released a statement clarifying the incident. "As Underground Management we would like to take this opportunity and apologise for the unfortunate incident that occurred last night regarding one of the artists that was booked to perform at our establishment," the statement reads. "What happened was beyond our control but in any case, we will never tolerate or bow down to any artist that comes wherever they come from and undermine our artists from the EC, our establishment, our town," the organiser adds. "We will come up with the full statement in due course as we are busy consulting with our legal team and all parties involved. You know we have hosted big-name artists and actors and they never gave us any attitude. Once again, please accept our sincere apology and we appreciate your unwavering support," After numerous attempts to reach Young Stunna, he had not responded to ZiMoja.
