Africa-Press<\/a> – South-Africa<\/a>. <\/strong><\/span>\u201cThe Strongbow Big Picnic Natural Wonder Edition Remixed by MTV\u201d has added star power artists to the line-up of the highly anticipated festive special.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe Natural Wonder Edition\u201d has refreshed its line-up with the addition of House singer and songwriter Holly Rey will headline the first special alongside the incredibly talented Afro-soul musician Aubrey Qwana.<\/p>\n

Both performers will perform a medley of their most popular hits and bring their unique sounds together in a special performance against unforgettable sights and soulful sounds for your viewing pleasure.<\/p>\n

The finale special will air on December 26, headlined by recently crowned South Africa’s Hottest MC and rapper Focalistic.<\/p>\n

The “Ke Star” hit-maker will be joined by R&B crooner Langa Mavuso in a refreshing performance as we count down the days to the new year.<\/p>\n

Focalistic hit single Ke Star featuring Vigro Deep reached gold status in just three months.<\/p>\n

Focalistic posted the exciting news on Twitter and Instagram in August, revealing to his fans that the song that kept them dancing and keeping the lock-down blues at bay has hit the gold status.<\/p>\n

Honouring his mother, the Pretoria-born star said: \u201cThis is my first plaque and I\u2019m giving it to my mom.<\/p>\n

\u201cI never picked up my university degree certificate and she stressed me about that.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m glad that I get to give this to her,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

Tune in to “The Strongbow Big Picnic \u2013 The Natural Wonder Edition Remixed” on MTV Base SA (DStv channel 322) on Saturday, December 19 and December 26 at 3.30pm.<\/b><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
