Kokomaster Dbanj was supposed to storm and set Zimbabwe ablaze last weekend at the Lion Lager Summer Beer Festival dubbed the "Battle of Africa" but based on reports from Zimbabwe, our man delivered an extremely lukewarm performance that eventually had him booed off stage.
According to AllAfrica.com, the festival featured Ugandan reggae musician Bebe Cool and local dancehall artistes Winky D, Guspy Warrior and King Shaddy. D'Banj represented West Africa while Bebe Cool represented East Africa.

D'Banj was the main attraction and when it was turn for him to perform, he exploded onto the stage
amid pomp and zest but soon fizzled out and slumped into near- por*nography with some fans.
He ran out of steam after exhausting his familiar songs in under an hour or so and went into what many revellers described as "hogwash ".
His opening song was "Fall in Love", followed by "Oliver Twist", "Kukere" remix, "Don't Tell Me Nonsense", "Igwe" and "Why Me". Then he lost the plot.
Neither his scantily dressed performers or his swag was enough to sway nearly all the audience that turned noticeably restless and disappointed. So unsatisfactory was his performance that he turned to X-r*ated tricks with ladies he calls "Kokolates" on stage, in a bid to kill time.
Among the "Kokolates" was songstress Ammara Brown, who jumped on stage and joined in the dirty dancing.
"Let me see all my Kokolates on stage, now shake your boom boom and do the catwalk," he said, amid boos from the crowd, especially men. Some disgruntled fans hurled insults and obscenities.
D'Banj failed to impress and was the alternative of the Nigerian twins P-Square who performed at the same event this past year and left fans seeking more. P-Square were even barred from leaving the stage by fans who craved for more.
"This guy should not have been the main act at the show. He has a few hit songs we know that he has performed. Now look at how he is whiling up the remaining time with the ladies," said a fan in the crowd.
