JOHANNESBURG- THINGS have finally come to a head in the once-rumoured and now confirmed beef between Master KG and Nomcebo Zikode.
Master KG and Nomcebo Zikode are trending on social media after they got involved in a public spat over their hit song Jerusalema.
The Jerusalema hitmakers seem to be at loggerheads over payment for the song that has become a global sensation.
Taking to social media, Nomcebo Zikode released a statement claiming that she was never paid for the song.

According to Zikode, she was not paid a cent of the profits from the song that led to a viral dance challenge.
Master KG has however, disputed this claim and countered by saying that Zikode was demanding a higher percentage than what was initially agreed.
He said that the initial agreement was 50/50, however Nomcebo went on to change her mind and ask for 70% while Master KG got 30%.
