How much Babes Wodumo charges for a gig

Some of her fans on Twitter are not impressed with the enormous amount, saying it's not worth it.


The feud between Babes Wodumo and the Buyel’Ekhaya Pan African Music Festival organisers has resulted in them revealing how much she charged them for a performance that fans were not impressed with.

After allegedly arriving late for her performance last week, further refusing to perform, Babes had allegedly been paid a deposit of 75%, which was R75 000. This means the Wololo hit maker charges R100K for a performance.

The amount she charges landed her on the trends list on Twitter, with most saying they did not understand why she charged that much “just to go on stage and lipsync to Wololo”.

Some, however, said the amount was worth it, slamming South Africans for “thinking our local talent comes cheap”.

If newcomer Babes charged R100K, how much did DJ Black Coffee charge for a gig, some asked.
