“A team of judges has determined that RayDizz had displayed the best combination of raw talent, stage presence, and crowd control,” said RayDizz’s manager and publicist Phil Chard.
He said as part of his prize Ray Dizz would be performing today at The Glass House (Borrowdale Racecourse) as the Miller Sound Clash Tour arrives in Harare.
Chard added that the DJ would also share the stage with South African stars Khuli Chana, DJ Fresh, DJ Euphnik and D.
After winning Ray Dizz had this to say: “I am elated to have won and I look forward to representing Zimbabwe in Las Vegas. Hopefully this will be just one of many accolades that I will achieve in my career.”
