Neera Concert was a show of its kind attracting several lost and even forgotten artistes leaving revelers surprised as they watched them perform at Freedom city. Many of them tried to introduce themselves but still partiers could not recognize them and these included Mad Tiger, Lexus Kalema, Fantom Lovins, Minayo, Red Banton, Chagga, Maurice Hasa, Diamond Oscar, Witty Witty among others.
Diamond Oscar is the only artiste that tried to hold the crowd’s attention but others left the stage without any recognition. Radio & Weasel’s new manager Chagga also tried to remind revelers he too can sing but left the stage with no one cheering or even nodding their head.
Red Banton was the worst performer of the night after failing to sing live giving a hard time to the UB5 band as he kept off key and changing from one voice to another.
It’s so sad to find an ariste like Red Banton who was once respected and looked at as a role model by artistes like Jose Chameleone, no longer even knows how to sing.
