DJ Shimza played to a sold-out, jam-packed audience over the weekend at Quantum Brooklyn in New York City.
Shimza, born Ashley Raphala in Swaziland and who grew up in Thembisa, Ekhurhuleni — has been on a non-stop world tour since the beginning of April. His US tour began on October 6.
South African Pam Mbatani, based in New York, attended the show. “I first saw Shimza performing in Ibiza and I was so impressed by his energy,” she said. “When Shimza playedby Zakes Bantwini, the crowd went wild! Everyone was dancing non-stop and New Yorkers, who are normally a tough crowd — were so warm and welcoming.”
Portia Mncube from SA also attended the event. “Shimza’s performance was electrifying. He had the audience fully engaged and dancing for four hours straight, and people still wanted more at the end of it!”
