Butterphly said Friday’s show would be her first in Bulawayo and she was looking forward to mix and mingle with the city’s revellers, as well as sharing ideas with other female DJs.

“The event would be like a homecoming party for me and I will get a chance to share with people what was happening in the Big Brother Africa house. People will get to know me better on Saturday and I am happy that I will showcase my talent as I will be spinning the decks and will play both local and international music which most young people enjoy,” she said.

She urged female DJs to be confident and believe in themselves, and not to copy other people’s works.

“A lot has happened and new things have come up and I will share pure nice music with fans in a unique style,” Nyerera said.
