The project also included one of Africa’s biggest hits, SETE, which dominated the music charts in Mzansi and abroad.
When he was in the United States for the BET Awards, Skhanda World CEO revealed on Twitter that his record had been certified platinum.
K.O claimed that he is happy of having released a successful hip-hop album at a time when hip-hop is on the decline.
The rapper did not fail to thank his supporters for making it possible for him to go this far.
K.O, “Before flying out to the BET’s I was informed my 4th solo album Skhanda Republic 3 is officially PLATINUM. A hiphop album going platinum in this climate off no stunts no gimmicks – just music. Thank you to all the contributors and all my supporters.”
