Producer and house DJ KG Smallz is a force to be reckoned with in the music space.

The artist, real name Kgotso Potsane, is well known for his smash hit Yes God featuring Kabza De Small, Oscar Mbo and Thakzin, which received wide airplay across all radio platforms.

Now KG Smallz has collaborated with Naakmusiq and DJ Tira on another single, Sthandwa Sam featuring Diamond Boss.

Speaking to TshisaLIVE, the Northern Cape-born DJ said the Yes God project was one he invested heavily in to ensure it didn’t flop.

“I decided to extend it with remixes to make sure to cover every one from amapiano to 3 step and deep house. It’s a 10-track project that includes the best producers like Kabza de small, Kelvin Momo, Bee Bar, Chymamusique, De Vynalist, SGVO, Coco SA, Môrdar, Mhwa Keys & Thakzin. This project was a success and is still making waves,” he said.

Speaking about his collaboration with Naakmusiq and DJ Tira, he said: “The Sthandwa Sami project is our latest collaboration that dropped last week Friday. I made the song late last year with Dj 8Milli and Diamond Boss the vocalist. So after the successful project I had with Oscar Mbo on Yes God, I decided to expand my portfolio and make more collaborations locally and internationally. That’s when I approached Dj Tira to work with him. He accepted my proposal and we started working together. He then called in Naak to be part of it. It’s a great opportunity for me to expand my network and music catalogue with big features”, said KG Smallz.

KG Smallz says the pressure of producing one hit after another “is real” and he couldn't predict how well the song would do. “Your next song will receive the best interest of the market but I’m glad to see the love that comes after we have dropped our latest song. It really shows that in music business you need to have a plan for your next release to make sure that you maintain your track,” he said.

Apart from music KG Smallz is an entrepreneur in the construction sector. “I’m an entrepreneur who is still putting his feet in the construction business and also farming, where I work jointly with my father back home,” he added.
