However, when he teamed with Master KG to produce ‘Jerusalema Deluxe’ and Nomcebo Zikode’s Xola Moya Wam, his music trajectory changed.

“We kept pushing my music even though people weren’t latching on my songs as much as I initially thought they would. It was only when I produced songs such Xola Moya Wam and Jerusalema deluxe with Master KG that I saw something happen," Benza told Sowetan Live.

“Master KG was actually the one who introduced me to Makhadzi since I’ve always wanted to work with her. I went on to produce almost 10 songs on her latest album Kokovha,” he added.
