Master KG’s song wasn’t played in most major SA radio stations, but after Europe showed him love, they started pretending like they put him on first. That’s the reality of the South African entertainment industry for you

What God is doing for Master KG and Nomcebo with Jerusalema is beyond what anyone could’ve imagined! When God is on your side, it truly doesnt matter who is against you.
