Limkokwing University of Creative Technology erupted into a whirlwind of screams, chants, and musical nostalgia on Wednesday afternoon as Young Zesh delivered a performance that students will be talking about long after exam season.<\/p>\n
The Eswatini superstar headlined the Know Your Game, Bet Responsibly campaign event, an initiative powered by Mulasport to educate young people about safe and responsible gambling habits.<\/p>\n
But while the conversations were serious, the performances were electric. From the moment Young Zesh stepped on stage, the atmosphere shifted, an instant surge of excitement, as if someone had turned up the emotional volume of the entire room.<\/p>\nYoung Zesh rendering his set.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n
Dressed in his signature urban flair and wearing the confidence of an artist who knows his influence, he kicked off his set with \u201cSivumeleni,\u201d his Nomndayi-assisted hit that instantly had students screaming the lyrics as though rehearsed.<\/p>\n
The University\u2019s MPH transformed into a choir, its harmonies echoing through the walls with the type of unity only music can summon.<\/p>\n
Without missing a beat, he glided into \u201cKogcina Bani,\u201d the bassline thumping through the floor as the crowd jumped in unison. Phones shot into the air as students recorded each second, determined not to let the moment slip away unnoticed.<\/p>\n
And when he moved on to \u201cLiphasela,\u201d the cheers reached a level typically reserved for stadium finales.<\/p>\n
The energy was warm, contagious, and unfiltered, exactly the environment that cemented Young Zesh\u2019s reputation as one of Eswatini\u2019s most captivating performers.<\/p>\n
What followed next was an unexpected treat. Young Zesh paused, breathed in the crowd\u2019s anticipation, and launched into an acapella rap verse, no beat, no backing track, just lyrical precision and raw delivery.<\/p>\nMCO Jamrock during his performance<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n
The hall filled with whistles that sounded more like a celebration than applause. Students leaned forward, hanging on each bar, appreciating the craft behind the performer. As soon as the opening notes of \u201cKaKhoza\u201d rang out, Limkokwing unleashed its full voice.<\/p>\n
Students danced in the aisles, screamed from the back rows, and sang along word-for-word as though the song was a shared anthem.<\/p>\n
It was a unified eruption of excitement, the kind of performance that confirms why KaKhoza has become a cultural stamp among the youth.<\/p>\n
If Young Zesh lit the match, MCO Jamrock arrived to pour petrol on the fire. Clad with his charismatic stage presence and an energy that could rival a power station, MCO Jamrock opened with his hit \u201cUyacubuka,\u201d the viral sensation with over a million views.<\/p>\n
The moment the beat dropped, chaos ensued, cheers, stomps, dancing, hands in the air. The crowd\u2019s reaction was instant and overwhelming.<\/p>\n
He followed up with \u201cImvelo,\u201d effortlessly riding the instrumental as students sang along like they were at a sold-out concert rather than a university event focused on responsible betting. It was music in its purest form, shared, felt, and lived.<\/p>\n
While the creative performances stole the show, the event\u2019s central theme, promoting responsible betting, remained clear. Organisers from Mulasport engaged students in practical, informative dialogues about betting limits, financial control, and the emotional discipline required to avoid addictive habits.<\/p>\n
By the time the event wrapped up, Limkokwing University had experienced both an educational seminar and a concert-worthy spectacle.<\/p>\n

Young Zesh and MCO Jamrock didn\u2019t just entertain, they connected, inspired, and brought life to an initiative aimed at protecting young people\u2019s futures.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"By Siphesihle Dlamini Limkokwing University of Creative Technology erupted into a whirlwind of screams, chants, and musical nostalgia…","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":6472,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"iawp_total_views":0,"csco_display_header_overlay":false,"csco_singular_sidebar":"","csco_page_header_type":"","csco_page_load_nextpost":"","csco_post_video_location":[],"csco_post_video_location_hash":"","csco_post_video_url":"","csco_post_video_bg_start_time":0,"csco_post_video_bg_end_time":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[35,22,36,25,26],"tags":[46,39,73,41,58],"class_list":["post-6465","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-entertainment","category-eswatini-daily-news","category-lifestyle","category-national","category-swaziland","tag-africa","tag-entertainment","tag-eswatini","tag-music","tag-national","cs-entry","cs-video-wrap"],"yoast_head":"\n
