DJ Arch Junior made it through by means of a public SMS vote.

His father, Glen, who spoke on his behalf, said his child was ecstatic about the advancemen­t.

“AJ has lots of work to do for the finale, to win the competitio­n, but we are so happy for him that he has made it this far. Whether he wins or not, we are proud of him.”

K-N9NE was placed in front of the judges alongside comedic duo Double Blacks for the judges’ vote.

It was a tough decision for the judges, but K-N9NE came out on top and filled the final spot in the top 6 of the SA’s Got Talent finale.

“This is a dream come true. This is my passion and I am now one step closer to becoming the headline artist I have worked so hard to be. Thank you to everyone for the support,” he said.
