The season two Dj Jamboree is a follow up concert to the initial battle of Djs that last week witnessed Kelvin “Soul Supreme” Sifelani squaring things up with Hosea “Hitman” Singende and Kimble Rodgers at the same venue.
Running under the theme, Harare meets Kwekwe, the jamboree will see Dj Stavo taking care of business on the decks alongside Harare’s trend-setters Dj Ash Styles and Niveck of Game Recognise Game fame.
The event is being hosted courtesy of Motor Action Sports Club proprietor Eric Rosen in conjunction with Afrimune Media fronted by music promoter Mathias Bangure as part of its festive season entertainment calendar.
