“This is a national show that is why we are bringing in a Harare artist and more from different regions will be coming in in the future,” POY said.
Dizzy Don said he was ready for the big day.
“I will perform three of my songs; two that have had good rotation on radio and the other one is a street anthem.
“Mostly my intention is to learn more bout what my brothers in Bulawayo are doing, so I will add my two cents, but I am coming mostly to observe,” Dizzy Don said.
