Kabza De Small
By Lerato Mpembe
South African Amapiano sensation Kabza De Small has announced the cancellation of his scheduled performances for the weekend of 9–11 May 2025, citing a sudden illness. The announcement was made through a statement released by his management company, Lawk Communications, on 9 May 2025. 
In the statement, Kabza De Small expressed his regret over the cancellations:
“To my beloved fans, due to a very sudden and unfortunate illness, I regret to inform you that I will not be able to perform this weekend at various establishments. I sincerely apologise for any inconvenience this may cause to the event organisers, their sponsors, and to my supporters, and truly appreciate your understanding during this challenging time. We are committed to working with the promoters to find a suitable alternative date for my performances. I can’t wait to see you all soon!”
Fan Reactions and Support
Fans have taken to social media platforms to express their support and well-wishes for the artist’s speedy recovery. Many have commended Kabza De Small for promptly informing his audience and handling the situation professionally.
One fan commented, “Professionalism at its best. Not just leaving people hanging,” while another added, “Get well soon, Papito. Alex loves you, mfanasekhaya.” 
Industry Standards and Comparisons
Kabza De Small’s proactive communication stands in contrast to instances where artists have been criticised for last-minute cancellations or failing to honour commitments. For example, fellow artist Scotts Maphuma has faced backlash in the past for not showing up at scheduled events and for not engaging with fans during appearances.
Kabza De Small’s approach has been lauded as a model for professionalism in the entertainment industry, highlighting the importance of transparency and respect for fans and event organisers.
Upcoming Plans and Commitments
Despite the current health setback, Kabza De Small remains committed to his music career and has plans to reschedule the cancelled performances. His management is working closely with event promoters to find suitable alternative dates.
Fans are encouraged to stay updated through Kabza De Small’s official social media channels and his management company for announcements regarding new performance dates and other developments.
