South African, Dj Milkshake was in Harare on 23rd May to perform for part 3 of the God Fathers series hosted at the chic Mekka. Mekka appears to entering winter with some hot South African acts to get the temperature higher. Milkshake was someone I heard about back in Cape Town but had not seen live or on the 1’s and 2s. However HIFA 2014 hosted a hot dj party with Crazy White Boy and Milkshake. Making his Zimbabwean debut at the country’s biggest arts festival. At HIFA, Milkshake performed the closing set and wow did he bring it. Track after track, Milkshake definitely has the right ingredients to make an epic shake down. Hip Hop and R&B tracks were pumping left right and centre.  At HIFA party goers worked up a sweat outside under the Harare stars at the Harare gardens in the hub of the city madness. Milkshake definitely added some charisma to the HIFA DJ Party by interacting with crowd and playing all the hottest tracks.

Of course when I heard that Milkshake was returning to Harare just 3 weeks later for the Mekka Godfather Friday Specials hosted by Hidden Culture we HAD TO GO. So my girl, Tha and I went to Mekka for a fun Friday night. With loads of cocktail options we kicked our night well. It was a good night with loads of interesting moments. We bumped into a lot familiar faces and was great fun to finally meet Milkshake.

                  A moment with Milkshake

Milkshake was definitely friendly and happy to be back in Harare. Milkshake added in response to Mekka’s set up, “I really like the atmosphere here”. It seems one of South Africa’s top dj acts enjoyed the ambiance and different experience on his second visit. As usual he rocked the dance floor which saw a few twerk moves feature on the dance floor. It was a fantastic night! A grown, sexy and a tasty shakedown with one of South Africa are best in the heart of the northern suburbs…we hope he comes back for summer madness by then a mouth-watering Milkshake treat will be well deserved!
