MICHAEL KAYUNDE
This weekend recorded entertainment highlights as renowned Namibian DJ Alba Nalo took centre stage at the highly-anticipated MTN Bushfire event. Courtesy of Ballantines, the vibrant celebration of music unfolded in the Malkerns Valley in Eswatini.

DJ Alba, known for her infectious energy and impeccable mixing skills, had the privilege of opening the show for the acclaimed Kabza De Small. The line-up also included other talented Namibian acts, such as DJ Alu and Musketeer, who added their unique flavour to the event, showcasing The Land of the Brave's diverse sound to an international audience.

Meanwhile, in another part of Africa, Namibian artist of the decade Gazza graced the stage at the African Music, Arts and Food Festival in Lusaka, Zambia, on Saturday. Gazza took to social media to express his gratitude for the warm reception he received. In a heartfelt post, he wrote: "They are now speaking Oshiwambo in Zambia. The bridge between the two countries will soon be connected, allowing many Namibian artists to thrive".

Looking ahead, Gazza is set to host his highly anticipated orchestra show at the National Theatre of Namibia this weekend. The event promises to be a grand celebration of music, with the superstar's melodious tunes resonating through the halls and captivating audiences from all walks of life.
