One thing to note is that it became one of the only South African albums to reach number one in 2025 in multiple countries.

"Nasty C now ties Kabza De Small for the album with the most countries reaching No. #1 this year so far on Apple Music for a South African artist," the blogger wrote.

Where he does earn the bragging rights, however, is that he is the most SA artist with the most days spent at the number one spot in the 2025 Spotify Daily artist charts.

He is second with Canadian rapper Drake taking the number one spot. Kelvin Momo is third, with DJ Maphorisa being fourth.

Now, Kabza's album has also been named the only album with 21 million streams and counting. Check out the X post below:

There have been numerous stars who have previously given Kabza his flowers. The latest being Oscar Mbo, who said he is the new Black Coffee.

“Can we give it to Kabza (De Small), guys. Come on!" he exclaimed. "Some people think he is the new Vinny because of the height and everything, and also because Vinny loves people/ I believe that Kabza loves people. Yes, but I feel like Kabza is special, man. Most of the time, you find people who are DJs but not producers. Kabza has got that thing. He has talent, producer and DJ at the same time, you do not get that a lot,” he said.

He then revealed that he thinks Kabza is the next Black Coffee because of his work ethic.

“There are many factors to saying he is the new Black Coffee, because we cannot have a new Black Coffee. I am saying in terms of how you compare it. Kabza ticks a lot of boxes. He is confident, he is consistent. If you can go back, you would know Coffee was dropping a lot of music. That is how much he was pushing,” he said.
