Another rapper that is celebrating an achievement is AKA. Briefly.co.za earlier reported that AKA recently took to social media to share that his single titled Energy has now reached gold status.

Supa Mega shared a a screenshot of a direct message he received from Nota Baloyi telling him that Energy has gone gold. The Fela In Versace hitmaker took to Twitter to share the news with his fans even though Nota told him not to share the news yet.

AKA dropped the single in May this year along with Monuments and Cross My Heart. AKA ignored Nota's instructions and posted the screenshot on Twitter. He captioned it: "God is great." Mzansi Hip-hop followers took to his comment section to share mixed reactions after he revealed that the track has gone gold. Some of them accused Mega of "cooking" gold plaques while others said they'll believe him when they see the actual plaque. Maybe AKA shared the news because Nota now works for RiSA.
