What started as a rumour among social media users, has now become a reality. Chris Brown, aka Breezy, took to his Instagram to reveal his long awaited return to South Africa. After nearly a decade since being in South Africa, Breezy announced that he will make his return to South Africa at the iconic FNB Stadium in Johannesburg on Saturday 14 December 2024, promising fans an unforgettable evening filled with his chart-topping hits and electrifying performance.
With the hashtag #ChrisBrown trending with over 5000 posts on X (formerly known as Twitter), it’s clear that fans are looking forward to seeing Breezy deliver his high-energy performance and choreography to the stage. He is favoured by South Africans for his blend of R&B, pop, and hip-hop music and his incorporation of some of South Africa’s dance moves and music like amapiano.
South Africans didn’t shy away from expressing their eagerness to see the multi-talented R&B force. As he added the performance announcment to X, his fans added their hilarious two cents:
“Chris, did you really come to South Africa just to take our bonuses away?”, commented one user.

Some are not too happy that the R&B star is only performing in one city. An X user commented, “I genuinely need to understand why only one city? I’m pretty sure I’m not the only one.”
