Zimbabwean gospel artists are withdrawing from the Kingdom Tour, a show featuring Maverick City and Kirk Franklin, scheduled for August 12 at the Glamis Arena in Harare. Artists like Annatoria, Takesure Zamar Ncube, Tembalami, and The Unveiled have pulled out, citing “unforeseen circumstances.”
This development comes after controversy surrounding Chandler Moore’s performance at the BET Awards and Kirk Franklin’s 2022 BET Cypher video, which some deemed blasphemous.
The show’s organizers had raised ticket prices after the first batch sold out, but the withdrawals have put the event in jeopardy. Some fans have expressed concerns over the alleged “rituals” and perceived secularization of the show. The controversy has sparked debate among gospel music fans, with some defending the artists’ decisions and others expressing disappointment.
The show’s fate remains uncertain as more artists may withdraw, leaving fans wondering if the event will proceed as planned.
