American superstars Janet Jackson and Jill Scott will headline the 11th annual DStv Delicious International Food & Music Festival in September, celebrating 30 years of creative freedom in Mzansi.
Through her albums Control and Rhythm Nation 1814, Jackson certified her global pop icon status in the late 1980s with songs such as What Have You Done for Me Lately, Nasty, Control and When I Think Of You.
Three-time Grammy winner Scott will perform at the Kyalami Grand Prix Circuit on Sunday, September 22; while Jackson will be the headliner on Saturday, September 21.
This can bee seen as some reunion of some sort as Jackson and Scott have starred in Tyler Perry’s 2007 film Why Did I Get Married? and its 2010 sequel Why Did I Get Married Too?.
