Freeman, whose song is causing a stir in entertainment joints as well as on the airwaves, has witnessed a phenomenal rise to fame ever since the release of the song that is dedicated to one of Harare’s leading shopping malls, Joina City.
The young musician will entertain music lovers at the show that will feature more than 50 sound groups which will battle for the title of the dancehall sound in Zimbabwe.
The cup clash, dubbed “The Harare Show Cup Clash”, which has been an annual event for close to two decades will see groups such as Mafia, Ward 26, Dangerzone and the defending champions Black Identity among others battling for top honours.
The cup clash has nurtured talent in Zimbabwe and has seen the rise of such stars like Jiggaz becoming household names.
Show organiser and one of the pioneers of dancehall in Zimbabwe, Jackie B real name Masauko Chafudzika, said the aim of the show was to promote local dancehall talent in Zimbabwe.
“My aim is to promote dancehall music in the country and to see that artistes are given a platform where they can showcase their talent,” he said.
On the other hand, Freeman promised a top-drawer act.
“I promise fans a show to remember and I will also take the opportunity to belt out my new tunes that I have finished recording,” he said.
For the first time the show will feature two of the best female artistes at the moment, Lady Bee and Lady Squanda.
Other artistes that are billed to perform at the cup clash are Badman, Benji Tee and Highgrade among others.
United Kingdom-based Mega Sound are expected to be guest performers at the show.
Jackie B urged dancehall lovers to come in their numbers and be entertained in a way they have never seen before.
“I urge dancehall lovers to find their way to City Sports Centre and experience dancehall being taken to another level,” said Jackie B.
