Master KG claims to be less concerned about awards despite his huge musical success.
The music producer got a SAMA nomination this year after being snubbed in 2021 – The snub angered lots of South African because of his hit song, Jerusalema which went viral globally.
KG is excited about the nod but it’s not it’s not something he prioritizes.
Speaking to Drum, he said:
“I would love to get Record of the Year, but I don’t think too much about awards,” he says.
“People tend to think I have an issue with the SAMAs, I just don’t understand how they are run and how they make their selections. If I had an issue, I was going to say they must not nominate me at all,” he says.
“I had the biggest song last year; I wasn’t nominated but there were other bigger nominations outside of the SAMAs which kept me busy. In essence, I make music and I’m not worried about awards. If people see your worth, they will always honour you in a rightful manner. There are absolutely no grudges.”
