My Sol's Lamborghini Convoy Causes FonCity Chaos As Organiser Fires Back: 'Never Again!'

Money can buy luxury cars, private security and an extravagant entrance, but can it buy everyone's patience? Socialite Solly Madibela, popularly known as My Sol, has found himself at the centre of a heated debate following his headline-making appearance at FonCity 2026.

What should have been another glamorous weekend for South Africa's entertainment and business elite has instead become a conversation about excessive displays of wealth, celebrity behaviour and basic consideration for fellow guests.

The drama unfolded at Sun City resort in the North West, where FonCity hosted its latest edition from 6 to 9 November. The exclusive, all-inclusive lifestyle experience brought together some of Mzansi's biggest DJs, entertainers, influencers, socialites and business personalities for four days of music, parties and luxury entertainment.

But while guests arrived expecting premium treatment, My Sol's spectacular entrance allegedly created an inconvenience that some attendees were not prepared to overlook.

The socialite arrived with a fleet of Lamborghinis accompanied by a security entourage that followed him around the resort. Initially, the expensive motorcade attracted attention, but things allegedly took an uncomfortable turn on Monday, 9 November, when guests preparing to leave found their movements disrupted by the convoy.

Suddenly, the conversation was no longer about the cars' price tags but about whether one person's grand entrance should inconvenience an entire event.

Katlego Malatji Breaks Silence After My Sol's FonCity Convoy Drama

FonCity co-founder Katlego Malatji has now weighed in, and his response has certainly added fuel to the already heated discussion.

Although Malatji has stepped away from his executive leadership position at Homecoming Events, he remains closely associated with the organisation and did not appear impressed by the unfolding controversy. Taking to X, he delivered a rather pointed message without mentioning anyone directly.

"That guy will never taste this event again," Malatji wrote.

Well, that was certainly not a subtle response! Although he did not identify the person he was referring to, social media users quickly connected his remarks to the ongoing complaints surrounding My Sol's arrival.

Whether this signals an actual ban from future editions remains to be seen, but the statement has certainly raised questions about what happened behind the scenes.

Duma Collective founder and Chief Creative Officer Sibu Mabena also joined the conversation, sharing her own frustrating experience at the resort. She revealed that she had previously waited an hour for her vehicle and eventually had to collect it from the garage herself. According to Mabena, the businessman's arrival on Sunday also affected her plans to leave the property.

"I was trying to leave at 4pm to head to clients and ended up leaving at 16:45 because of his arrival convoy. The drama! The spectacle! Very irritating," she explained.

Mabena was careful to clarify that her frustration was not rooted in personal hostility towards My Sol. Rather, she appeared particularly irritated by what she considered unnecessary theatrics at an event attended by numerous other guests. And judging by the reactions online, she was certainly not the only person questioning the arrangement.

My Sol's Lamborghini Convoy Divides Social Media

As expected, the internet has split into different camps, with some questioning the need for such an elaborate motorcade while others believe the businessman is simply enjoying the fruits of his success.

@XviThe37418: "Whats the point of moving with so many cars?"

@NimzaDeFMill: "Bro crushed their little egos and now they crashing out🙌🏾😭😂"

@kelvin12013: "How are people are going to have fun with you invading them"

@whiteriot321: "Conspicuous consumption is the term used for this display by the nouveau rich. When your wealth is new and the display is loud and you’re seeking status. 'Wealth Porn'. Something the truly wealthy rarely do."

@Mondz_Malatji: "Majority of people who go to fon city have degrees and most of them are GOOD QUALITY human beings. They brag different and wena you come with that low quality hood stunts that will NEVER impress the CALIBRE of people within that groove. Mysol,respectfully,you will never fit in 🤞🏾"

@sibumabena: "I waited an hour for my car to come and we had to end up going to fetch it from the garage. Yesterday, I witnessed their arrival in HD. I was trying to leave at 4pm to head to clients and ended up leaving at 16:45 because of his arrival convoy. The drama! The spectacle! Very irritating. Im not unnecessarily a hater but I couldn’t help it yesterday."

My Sol Previously Defended His Convoys

Interestingly, this is not the first time My Sol has faced questions about his preference for travelling with multiple luxury vehicles. During an appearance on Podcast and Chill, the socialite previously pushed back against criticism, arguing that people regularly see Volkswagen Polo and Range Rover drivers travelling together without generating the same outrage. He questioned why his Lamborghini convoy attracted such a different reaction.
