Master KG

Master KG has been played on NTS shows including New York Naomi, with Jerusalema first played on 25 July 2020.

Kgaogelo Moagi, known professionally as Master KG, is a South African musician and record producer. His album Skeleton Move received acclaim, including an AFRIMMA award for Best Artist/Group in the African Electro category. He is also known as the pioneer of the "Bolobedu" dance. In 2020, his song "Jerusalema" with Nomcebo Zikode, went viral online, gaining international success.

Master KG grew up in Calais Village in Limpopo. He started playing beats at the age of thirteen using a computer bought for him by his late uncle. Master KG was in a relationship with Makhadzi before they split in August 2020.

Master KG's music career began when he got in touch with DJ Maebela and they started experimenting with music software. In 2016, after much practice, he released his first single "Situation". After signing to his current record label, Open Mic Productions, Master KG released his debut album Skeleton Move in 2018. Master KG has collaborated with several artists, including Zanda Zakuza and Makhadzi . He sings in his local language Khelobedu, a language spoken by the people of Lobedu.

Master KG has performed in several other countries, including Zambia. In December 2018, his song "Skeleton Move" was apparently voted as Thobela FM's song of the year and generated controversy as King Monada fans felt that "Malwedhe" (which is King Monada's song) deserved the award.

In December 2019, Master KG released the song " Jerusalema ", featuring Nomcebo Zikode . In mid-2020, it went viral online, was recorded internationally and spawned a remix with Burna Boy. The video for "Jerusalema" was removed from YouTube in the late hours of 5 August 2020, but was restored the following day.
