Amandla Awethu: Bayede Inkosi

A new King has been crowned… and what a crowning it was.

In an unbelievable display of cunning and incredible fortitude by both F-X racers, Mandla Xulu came out in front  and not only stole the show but the throne as well.

With a victory as powerful as that, it was only fitting that his coronation on Monday Night Fuel be just as powerful. And it was a sight to behold. With half the fans in the fan base singing songs popularly sung amongst the CMA crowd, it was a true heroic crowning.

However the coronation wasn’t without some backlash. Some members of the fan base are worried that  the F-X series is becoming too political. Indeed, after King Mandla took the Crown, the F-X Cam Crew managed to capture Mandla’s father shaking hands and smiling with Moodswing which fans believe is a bad sign.

There are many that believe this over-familiarity with the Deputy Mayor could compromise the integrity that the F-X series has worked so hard to build by implying that the CMA was buying the F-X Crown.

However it must be noted that the fan base has only questioned what all this looks like rather than questioning the integrity themselves as it seems the legitimacy of the races has been put to rest. In fact, some fans have gone as far as saying Moodswing deliberately allowed those images to be leaked in an effort to ensure controversial discussion.

Regardless of how hungry Moodswing is for entertainment, no one can deny that Mandla’s victory was hard fought
