Speaking to ZAlebs recently, concert organiser David Airey said Nicki has been wanting to come to Mzansi for some time. "It's one of the few markets that she hasn't been to yet and she has a great interest in South Africa. So she's extremely excited to come to SA for the first time." 

He added that the Anaconda hitmaker is working hard in ensuring that her concert is one of the best she has performed thus far.

Let the countdown begin!
