Fans vouch for K.O to win this award
K.O's hit single SETE, featuring Young Stunna and Blxckie, did not get a single award at the Metro FM Awards, despite it being dubbed the song of the year.
However, speaking to Noma on her YouTube channel Drinks with Noms, he said he is underrated because he is not working hard enough to host a one-man show like his peers.
“I’ve never done just the K.O concert back home. If you walk through those doors, you only go there to see this man. My peers have done that. You’re talking about Cassper Nyovest and all those people, even AKA. I’ve never done that."
