The rapper, who was in Malawi over the weekend, expressed his excitement at winning the awards.
Cassper said the fact that his fifth studio album was winning him accolades was proof he was ageing well as an artist.
“I'm in Malawi driving from Blantyre to Lilongwe and we get a call saying we won a few awards, including song of the year, at the #SAHHA2020.
“First, to win best album with my fifth album is a testimony that I am ageing well. To win song of the year says my fans go hard! Thank you!” Cassper said.
