DJ Coco Brown Reacts To Truncated Summer Walker’s “In The City” Set
DJ Coco Brown Reacts To Truncated Summer Walker’s “In The City” Set. What was billed as a full-hour headliner became a flashpoint on Sunday night, October 5, 2025, at SunBet Arena in Pretoria. Summer Walker’s long-awaited South African debut at the In The City concert reportedly ran just 30 minutes before the singer left the stage, leaving fans confused and heated.
Among them was DJ Coco Brown, who summed up the mood in one line: “Drove all the way to go see all 5 minutes of Summer Walker,” wrote SA Hip Hop DJ Coco Brown.
Within hours, Walker addressed the crowd’s disappointment from the stage and later on Instagram. “South Africa, I am so sorry. I literally don’t know what happened. I got kicked off the stage,” she said.

The singer then pointed directly at the event’s promoter in a follow-up post, alleging administrative failures had derailed the night. “@steynent, as the promoter of the event refused to pay the JOC, it messed up the whole show even though we were early. Love you guys until next time.”
On the ground, the timeline felt even shorter for fans who arrived late or were caught in traffic. That is where DJ Coco Brown’s “five minutes” gripe landed: a punchy expression of the wider let-down after months of anticipation for a full-length Summer Walker set.
The night wasn’t meant to end this way. “In The City” has built a reputation for marquee line-ups and polished production, and SunBet Arena crowds are known for sticking around until the lights come up. Instead, Sunday’s headline slot closed with unanswered questions, a flurry of social posts, and a promise from Walker to return.
