No one can deny that Master KG's artistry is unmatched. The producer cooks up hit song after hit song whenever he's in the studio.
Not only do the tracks get South Africans dancing, but the world at large. The chokehold his song Jerusalema had on TikTok users is similar to how Psy's Gangnam style had the entire world on their feet trying to replicate the famous crossed arms and legs apart dance move.
According to The Conversation, Jerusalema made people bust moves but was also a source of hope for many during the COVID-19 lockdown. The religious theme of the song, with lyrics asking for god's protection during the pandemic that took so many people's lives, resonated with online users.
