Master KG's monster hit and now global dance phenomenon, Jerusalema, has surpassed 50 million views on YouTube, making quite decent money for him in the process.
Legendary music producer Sello"Chicco" Twala, who produced many hits for himself and the late Brenda Fassie, has praised Master KG for his recent achievement."The first time you hear the song it grabs your attention. The melody is simple and you can adopt it to any language. Simplicity is what makes good song fly all over the world. But if he had done the song in an English language it would have not become the hit that it is today," Twala said.
Master KG said he and Nomcebo never anticipated the song to fly so high when they recorded it on August 29 last year."Two years ago I dropped Skeleton Move which did 23 million views as my first single as a mainstream artist. Seeing Jerusalema doing even more makes me emotional. Thank you to everyone involved in the success of this song. This is proof that God has time for everything. I am happy and I thank God for taking me this far. I look forward to more."
Jamela said:"We are humbled by the success of Master KG and Jerusalema. This is a victory for all young men who come from the overlooked and forgotten corners of our country and society. Master KG has proven his mettle and that he is world-class in a short space of time. He is a passionate musician and a hard worker."
