Rapper Sjava has been pulled from the Cape Town International Jazz Festival lineup, festival organisers confirmed on Monday night.

The Cape Town International Jazz Festival (CTIJF) welcomes renowned artists from all around the world, but it also celebrates some of South Africa’s finest talent.

 

The 2020 edition of Africa’s Grandest Gathering is set to blow away audiences, with some of the hottest talent giving it their all on March 27 and 28 at the Cape Town International Convention Centre.

 

In a tweet posted on the official Cape Town International Jazz Festival account, festival organisers announced that " due to the seriousness of the allegations levelled against Sjava" they have decided to pull his performance from the lineup.

 

This comes after he addressed abuse and assault allegations levelled against him last year by former lover Lady Zamar.
