Watch this video of AKA's hit song being played in Dubai

• A concert-goer's video from a Dubai event captured AKA's beloved 2014 classic playing to an international crowd
• The track features a star-studded lineup and samples the late Brenda Fassie, cementing its place in African music history
• South African fans flooded the comments with heartfelt tributes after the clip surfaced online

AKA may no longer be with us, but his music continues to travel far beyond South African borders. A video posted on 25 October 2026 by concert-goer Jason Noah captured a crowd in Dubai vibing to All Eyes on Me, the Supa Mega's celebrated 2014 anthem, with attendees dancing along to every word.

In the clip, Noah filmed the lively Dubai audience fully immersed in the track, offering a striking reminder of just how far the late rapper's legacy has stretched across the continent and beyond.

All Eyes on Me was released as part of AKA's critically acclaimed album LEVELS and quickly earned its place as one of the most important records to emerge from South African hip hop.

The song drew on the legacy of the late Brenda Fassie, sampling her track Ngiyakusaba and weaving together a nostalgic local soundscape with contemporary rap energy. The result was a collaboration that brought together Da L.E.S, JR, and Nigerian superstar Burna Boy, the latter of whom shared a well-documented public feud with AKA that was never resolved before the South African rapper was tragically killed in 2023.

ryryamos crowned the single an undisputed classic:

"Rest in peace, AKA. Best rap track to ever come out of SA; only the real ones will know."

The original poster weighed in beneath his own post:

"RIP, SUPA MEGA, your memory lives on."

The moment served as a powerful testament to the enduring reach of AKA's artistry, with a song recorded over a decade ago still commanding rooms thousands of kilometres from where it was made.
