There is no stopping vocalist Nomcebo Zikode after her latest single Xola Moya Wami raked in more than five million views on YouTube.

Nomcebo, who is still basking in the success of Jerusalema, her global hit song with Master KG, teamed up with the musician again on Xola Moya Wami.

There are two uploads of the song on YouTube. The official audio has has more than two million views and another, uploaded a week earlier, has more than three million.

Two weeks ago, Nomcebo shared on Instagram that the song had gone gold.

“God is good, My first song where I'm not featured went gold. Thank you so much Master KG SA and Open Mic Productions SA, we've done it again,” she wrote.

Speaking to TshisaLIVE earlier this month, Nomcebo dismissed claims that she would be a "one-hit wonder" with Jerusalema, and said she had a lot to offer fans.

"This is not the first song I have recorded to make it big. Even Master KG has released big songs in the past. I recorded a song with DJ Giyani, Emazulwini. It went very big and people were also saying I would never record another big song, and then came Jerusalema. I have many more songs like that.

“Anyone who thinks I am a one-hit wonder must go study up on me and check all that I have done”.
