According to sources, the DJ charges around R200K for indoor events and R300K for outdoor events. Assuming he was paid a minimum of R200K for the eight bookings he would have made R1.6 million, and R2.4 million if all the events were outdoor gigs.

DJ Maphorisa was booked at The Bears Palace – Carolina, Dickenson Park – Veereenigeng, Nostra – Bryanston, Elkah Stadium (Makubenjalo) – Soweto, Metsing Tshisa Nyana – Orange Farm, Trimpark – Potchfstroom, Wedela Sports Ground – Carletonvelle, and at Zone 6 venue – Soweto.
