But the night belonged to Mufasa as Nyovest is affectionately known, who was worth the wait.
The "Move For Me" rapper came on stage with a new half and half coloured fade with an outfit that matched his hairstyle throughout his performance.
In true Nyovest fashion, he was energised and immediately lit up the stage with his electric performance.
