When it comes to our celebrities, it can sometimes seem like they are way out of our league and that we may not have what it takes to book them for a gig right? 

And while we have those with very expensive charging fees, we still have celebs who are actually quite cheap enough for us to afford them if we can. And if you are curious to find out who these celebs are, then this one's for you. 


Nicole Nyaba


You might remember Nicole Nyaba for having been linked to rapper AKA at one point in her career. It was then that the socialite quickly rose to fame because who would not want to know who SupaMega is allegedly dating right? 

Well it was just the other day when she took to her social media to announce her booking fees through her manager and fans couldn’t imagine why she would be charging that kind of money, or why she needed any booking fees at all!

Nicole's management charges R15 000 when she is booked for an event. Mind you, her transportation and lodging costs, as well as those of four other members of her team with whom she travels with, are not included in this price.

Compared to AKA who is charging R150 000 you have to agree that this is quite cheap no?

Tino Chinyani


Next up we have model and musical artist Tino Chinyani who landed on the wrong side of Black Twitter after it was discovered that he also charges R15 000 as his booking fees. 

And while it is quite cheap compared to what other celebs in the industry are charging, many couldn’t understand why he was even charging anyone to book him when he only has one single!

Or is he charging people to see him model on the runway? Either way, I'm pretty sure he has his reasons and we can only wish him the best in his musical career. 

Costa Titch


Here is yet another artist that has relatively cheap booking fees. The hip hop star and rapper charges only R20 000 to book him, and that can only mean that he is getting quite a number of gigs from those who love his music. 

Just the other day he and Amapiano star Cassper Nyovest were beefing after Costa Titch came after Cass for having abandoned the hip hop industry to join Amapiano. And when Cass announced later on that he would be releasing a hip hop album this year, it can only mean that he caved no? 

Vigro Deep


Another musician who is setting the tone in Amapiano is Vigro Deep. For a one-hour performance, the Bundle Of Joy hitmaker charges between R18,000 and R25,000.

Vigro’s career continues to take an upward trajectory, landing international gigs as well as working with fellow industry mates who have helped to put his music on the map. 

One of the celebs he’s worked closely with is the late Riky Rick who was known for mentoring and uplifting young and rising stars. 

Naak Musiq


It was just the other day when Black Twitter got into a heated debate about Naak Musiq’s charging fees. 

For an artist who is loved and widely celebrated in the industry many couldn’t imagine that it was that cheap to book him for a gig. This is after it was revealed that Naak charges R25 000 for an hour performance. 

The booking cost does not include the artist, DJ, pianist, or road manager's accommodations, flights, or transportation. 

Well there you have it. For some these charging fees might seem pretty ridiculous and pricey, but if you compare to what Black Coffee is charging for an hour performance, trust me, affording these guys is easy. 

And while we don’t know why they have decided to charge such relatively low prices, we can only hope that their careers will peak enough to roll in Black Coffee’s league.
