Briefly.co.za previously reported that Master KG has had one whopper of a 2020 and it just seems to keep on getting better. He just topped another chart and received another lit nomination – Master KG is on fire.

Taking to social media with great pride, Master KG revealed that he was sitting at the top of the Top 10 African songs of United Kingdom Afrobeat Chart Top 20. Our guy has been smashing international levels this whole year.

It was also reported that Master KG recently bagged an MTV EMA award and left Mzansi and the rest of the world singing his praises. To be recognised on a global platform is no easy task.

Some Mzansi social media users used the opportunity to point out how far Master KG has come since being snubbed by the South African Music Awards (SAMAs). This led to the SAMAs trending as Mzansi dragged them.
