The real eruption came when Fancy Gadam took to the stage, delivering hit after hit including “Total Cheat,” “Kom,” and “Nobody.” His stagecraft, energy, and connection with the audience once again cemented his title as the “King of the North.”
Shatta Wale’s entry was equally iconic. With his signature charisma, he had the entire stadium chanting, dancing, and singing along to hits like “Melissa,” “On God,” and “Ayoo.” The chemistry between both stars on stage was unmatched — a true celebration of unity between the North and South.

Fancy Gadam has once again proven that with determination and the right connection to his roots, stadium shows in the North aren’t just possible — they’re legendary.
