- Many South African fans took issue with his growling style, urging him to stick to his natural voice.

Let me paint you a picture. Picture this: Amapiano superstar Young Stunna took the stage at the Galaxy 947 Joburg Day concert, held at the scenic Crocodile Creek Polo Club in Lanseria. The crowd was buzzing with anticipation as they awaited his arrival. And let me tell you, he didn’t disappoint. He delivered a knockout performance, showcasing his chart-topping hits, including the unforgettable anthem Adiwele. It was nothing short of a spectacle, and the energy was palpable.
But here’s the thing—while some fans were absolutely blown away by Young Stunna’s commitment to his craft, others were less than thrilled. The growls that punctuated his performance became a hot topic of discussion, with critics arguing that he should rely more on his natural voice. It’s the kind of debate that gets everyone talking, and talk they did.
The conversation really heated up when Entertainment Commentator Phil Mphela weighed in. He had this to say:

“Hai hai hai. Young Stunna. He is a supremely talented King, no doubt about it, but this growl thing? It’s just… Use your normal voice. You’re a star of his caliber. This was way too amateurish.”
What South Africa is Saying About Young Stunna’s Performance
Social media lit up like a wildfire after the concert, with users expressing their thoughts on Young Stunna’s growling technique. Many were irked by the style, suggesting that he should focus on singing in his natural voice. But as we all know, when it comes to music, opinions are as diverse as the audience itself.
Here’s a taste of what people had to say:
@Sakhi_Sack chimed in with:
“I noticed the same thing when I watched the Kabza and Redbull concert. At first, I thought maybe I was missing something, but when everyone else praised him, I assumed I was wrong. Guess not.”
@BlxckSwiss_ shot back:
“Phil, the problem here might actually be you. Just saying.”
@sandile offered a practical perspective:
“It’s genuinely tough to sing and dance simultaneously. Singers often run out of breath quickly, especially if they don’t exercise regularly or if they smoke. Maybe some cardio would help him maintain better breathing during performances. Just a thought.”
@PovertykillerB agreed wholeheartedly:

“Finally, someone says it! Yo Phil, I don’t get why he doesn’t just use his normal voice. His performances are starting to grate on my nerves.”
@TheRealTiisetso countered:
“Come on, Phil, don’t overthink this. He’s not a classical vocalist. Let him be who he is.”
@Kagiesure summed it up perfectly:
“I’m so relieved I’m not the only one annoyed by this. Ababa, why not just sing in your own voice? Does this growl thing mask the fact that he can’t really sing? Either way, it bugs me.”
