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.

The lyrics of "Jerusalema" by Master KG captures the essence of longing for Jerusalem as the singer asks for protection and guidance on his journey. The opening lines, "Jerusalema ikhaya lami / Ngilondoloze / Uhambe nami / Zungangishiyi lana" roughly translate to "Jerusalem is my home / Guard me / Walk with me / Do not leave me here." The repetition of "Ngilondoloze" adds emphasis to the plea for protection.
The singer then repeats the first verse, adding "Ndawo yami ayikho lana / Mbuso wami awukho lana" which means "My place is not here / My kingdom is not here." This line emphasizes that the singer sees himself as a stranger in the world and longs to be in his true home, the heavenly Jerusalem.
The chorus, "Ngilondoloze ngilondoloze ngilondoloze / Zungangishiyi lana" repeats the plea for protection and guidance, with the repetition again adding emphasis. The song ends with a repeat of the first and second verses and the chorus.
Overall, "Jerusalema" is a song of longing for a spiritual home and asking for guidance and protection on the journey to get there.
