TOSS & Scotts Maphuma’s Cotton Fest Performance Falls Flat

Briefly News previously reported that popular amapiano duo Scotts Maphuma and TOSS stunned fans with a less-than-impressive performance at Cotton Fest on Saturday, 26 April 2025.

In an online video, Maphuma and TOSS can be seen performing on stage in front of a less-than-enthusiastic crowd, which quickly lost their voice after a loud, hearty introduction.

While the pair both enjoy successful careers as solo artists, they have often collaborated in the past and fans have a sense of their relationship through their online dance videos together.
