According to Tshisa Live, organisers of the event have claimed that Brickz owes them money for ditching them last year, with the star saying his bail conditions did not prohibit him from performing.

The star was sentenced to 15 years in prison last year for the rape of his teenage niece and has been out on bail since April.

TransAfrica Radio co-founder took to twitter to explain their decision.
