The 15th MTN South African Music Awards first Class Entries

Font size: Decrease font Enlarge font

With the 15th Annual SA Music Awards Launch and Nominees Announcement less than two weeks away, artists and fans all over the country are holding their breaths (and thumbs) in anticipation of the announcements. 

This year, there were an amazing 745 entries for South Africa music’s most prestigious music awards ceremony, a record number. These entries came pouring in to the 54 categories that will be contested in SAMA 15, seven of which were added this year to reflect both music’s increased presence in the digital domain and those uniquely local sounds that have, up until recently, existed on the fringes. As always the entrants are an eclectic mix of the old and new, the traditional and the cutting-edge, the popular and the little-known. Legends like Hugh Masekela, Rebecca Malope, Steve Hofmeyr and Ringo are there alongside stalwarts Watershed, Thebe, Juanita Du Plessis and DJ Cleo and rising stars L’vovo, Jesse Clegg, Flash Republic and Sipho-kazi. The organisers are excited about what this over-whelming response means: "The enthusiasm for the awards remains tremendously high and we are as keen as always to help make a contribution towards the success of South African music by rewarding the passionate particpation with a worthy event," they say. "The competition’s also going to be intense, and when the winners are announced in early May, they will be recognised as true achievers and proud ambassadors for our incredibly diverse, always surprising and constantly developing South African music industry.
