The Jerusalema dance challenge has taken not only South Africa by storm, but the world as well. Nurses and doctors across the world could do with a moment of playful joy amid all their hard work fighting the COVID-19 pandemic, and this catchy song has allowed them to do just this.

‘Jersulema’ by Master KG featuring Nomcebo Zikode is an uplifting dance-gospel song, and has done so well that it now has its own Wikipedia page.

According to Master KG, the dance challenge that has sparked a craze around the world started in Angola when a group of friends recorded a video of the dance choreography that has since gone viral.
