Master KG is definitely hitting it hard this year as he finally gets recognised by the Samas and awarded as this year’s International Achievement Recognition recipient.
This is coming after the star got snubbed last year at the awards.
Master KG’s fans launched into full celebration mode for the singer after what they felt was long-overdue recognition from the Samas organisers.
In the statement shared, it states: “Through his smash hit Jerusalema, featuring Nomcebo, he reached the stratosphere of international fame and acclaim. The anthemic Jerusalema sparked an international dance phenomenon that took every corner of the world by storm. Videos of flash mobs and musicians remixing the song were awash across social media platforms, from North America, South America and Europe to Asia, Australia and of course the mother continent, Africa.
“Master KG is currently in France where he is touring that country and Italy. From Calais in Tzaneen, Limpopo to the world, Master KG has flown the South African flag with pride,” read part of the statement.
Taking to Twitter, Master KG expressed his excitement.
“My first SAMA… Thank you for the recognition,” he tweeted.
