South African Afro-pop stars Blaq Diamond are making amends with their fans after a mechanical breakdown prevented them from reaching the Gagasi FM Summer Sessions in Newcastle on December 28.
While the duo was scheduled to headline at Khazins Shisanyama, travel complications between Johannesburg and Newcastle forced an eleventh-hour cancellation. In a formal statement released via their management, Umuthi Group, the pair expressed their sincere regret and detailed their efforts to reach the venue despite the vehicle issues.

Key Highlights from the Apology:
- The Cause: Severe vehicle mechanical problems while en route from Johannesburg.
- The Effort: The duo remained in constant contact with Gagasi FM organizers to find alternative transport, but no viable solutions were found in time.
- The Resolution: To show appreciation for their supporters’ loyalty, Blaq Diamond has announced a free make-up show for Newcastle fans. Details regarding the date and venue will be released shortly.
The group thanked Gagasi FM and the event stakeholders for their professionalism and patience, emphasizing that their commitment to their fans remains their top priority.
