Big Zulu vs Duncan: Clash of rap rivals!

RECENTLY, they shook Mzansi after releasing tracks dissing each other.

Big Zulu, whose real name is Siyabonga Nene (38) from Bergville in KZN, released a track titled 200 Bars dissing Duncan, and Duncan retaliated with a dissing track After Tears.

Now, drama is expected to unfold when the two meet on Saturday, 5 October.

They are both booked at uGatsheni Music Festival, which will be held in Pongola, northern KZN. The news was first confirmed by show organiser and maskandi singer Khuzani Ndlovu, who is known as Gatsheni.

The two rappers' game started in 2022 when Big Zulu released 150 Bars dissing various hip-hop artists. Duncan then released the song Umngcwabo in response to Big Zulu's.

This year, Big Zulu released 200 Bars with lyrics that reveal he and Duncan once met after the first diss tracks. The lyrics further reveal Big Zulu wanted to give Duncan a hot klap when they met but did not because he respected Duncan's wife.

Now that they will be sharing the stage, music fans want to find out what will happen between the two.

Duncan, whose real name is Siphamandla Mbambo (28) from Durban, confirmed he will share the stage with Big Zulu. However, he said Big Zulu must understand that they are both artists and dissing each other is part of hip-hop.

"I don't know what will happen. I'm not a fighting type. I'm not violent. I'm just a rapper. Big Zulu is old enough to understand how hip-hop artists work.

"We don't fight physically but use our talent and skills to express how we feel about each other. I'm not scared though because I'll be protected. Big Zulu might beat me up physically, but he cannot beat me when it comes to rapping," said Duncan.

Big Zulu also confirmed he will be performing at the show.

"I'm booked to perform and nothing else. I'll be there to do what I'm booked for, that's it," said Big Zulu.
