Fans laud the album, saying it is a masterpiece

It's safe to say the album is deserving of its wins and praise as many people in Mzansi said they still jam to the music.

Mlindo's career was hit with drama involving DJ Maphorisa after his manager slammed Maphorisa for neglecting Mlindo.

Speaking to Briefly News, Mlindo said he appreciated everyone who worked on the album.

"I’m very thankful for the love and support I’ve been getting and I won’t lie and say I expected to even see the album charting this long. I’m truly greatful to the fans and everyone I worked on on the album."

This is how peeps reacted, and one pointed out that Phori is probably enjoying the album's success more than Mlindo.

@MtoloSam shared:

"My daughter was seven years old at the time. I found her listening to the album three days ago. As you can see, it's a lifetime album! Congratulations."
