Fatso Mabushe: From #NqbkTalentSearch Winner to Sharing the Stage with Gospel Giants on ‘The United Tour’

Fatso Mabushe’s rise to gospel stardom has been nothing short of phenomenal. After capturing hearts across South Africa as the winner of the #NqbkTalentSearch, the gifted vocalist is now set to join some of the country’s most celebrated gospel artists on The United Tour under Koko Records. This spiritual and musical experience is scheduled to take place at Rhema Bible Church in Randburg on 21 June 2025.

Fatso’s journey began humbly, auditioning alongside thousands of hopefuls in the nationwide talent search spearheaded by Nqubeko Mbatha. His powerful voice, emotional depth, and authentic worship style stood out from the very beginning. Week after week, Fatso delivered performances that moved both judges and audiences, ultimately earning him the top spot in the competition and a spot on one of the most anticipated gospel tours of the year.

Now under the banner of Koko Records, Fatso Mabushe is about to make his mark in a big way. The United Tour will bring together an extraordinary line-up of headline acts including the powerhouse Ntokozo Mbambo, the visionary Nqubeko Mbatha, and worship leader Mmangaliso Vena. Fatso will join this stellar group as a featured artist, performing before thousands at Rhema, one of South Africa’s largest worship venues.

Adding to the excitement, the tour will also feature special guest appearances by Dr Tumi, Khaya Mthethwa, and Hle — artists who have shaped the gospel music scene with their anointed sounds and international appeal.

Speaking about his upcoming performance, Fatso Mabushe expressed deep gratitude:
“I’m overwhelmed and humbled. Winning the #NqbkTalentSearch changed my life, but to now be part of this incredible movement with artists I’ve looked up to for years—it’s beyond a dream come true.”
