AKA's team recently revealed his fourth studio album Mass Country was certified gold after its release on February 24.
Vth Season record label executive Raphael said a certified plaque would be presented soon after the album achieved more than 16-million streams.
“It’s a bittersweet moment to announce AKA latest musical masterpiece Mass Country is certified gold with more than 16-million streams. A certified plaque will be presented soon. This is no small task for a South African artist. Kiernan Forbes is definitely happy and looking down on us with joy that we all keep making his wishes come true.”
Before his untimely death AKA said he harboured no hard feelings for Cassper, who had been looking to get the rapper to fight him in his celebrity boxing matches.
He had a sit-down on the The Sobering Podcast where he spoke about his old beef with Cassper and how he needed to apologise to the rapper's parents for swearing at them.
“You know, I look back now and I’m not proud of moments like that [slapping Cassper] now that I’m a bit older and I’ve gone through some sh*t in my life and I’m actually not proud of it,” he said.
“Also I’m not proud of swearing at his parents you know to tell you the truth and I definitely owe them an apology.”
