Nasty and Nyovest kicked off their tour in Swaziland at the beginning of the month. They have already performed in Kenya, Mozambique, Botswana, and Malawi.
The rest of the tour will see them take to the stage in Nigeria, Rwanda, Cape Town, Durban and Johannesburg.
"The tour is an embodiment of unity, showcasing the power of collaboration. Our aim is to not only entertain but to inspire a new generation of artists to collaborate, innovate and push the boundaries of what African artists can achieve together," Nasty said ahead of the tour.
Nasty is not the only musician who has retaliated against a fan who did the unexpected while performing.
