SAMA nominees 2012

Waiting with bated breath

Yesterday, the 18th annual SAMA nominees were announced by SAMA CEO, Randall Abrahams. The nominees were announced in the morning and followed by a celebration at famous club, Hush. Randall was appointed CEO after last year's flop of an event and we wait to see how differently he is going to do the job given to him.

Hip-Hop Pantsula was nominated in the category of 'Best street urban album' for his album, MotswAfrika. We wait to see if the man who has the whole nation singing 'bosso ke mang?' will take this one home. Other nominees include Loyiso Bala, Kabomo, new-comers Micasa, Sipho Mahlangu, Bhekumuzi Luthuli and Brickz. The lady that was nominated in almost every category , with seven nominations, is Zahara. Having been compared to Britain's Adele, we cannot wait to see if Zahara takes all the awards home like Adele did at the Grammy's last month.

The awards will be held in Sun City on the 29th and 30th of April, with the main event taking place on the 30th and being aired the very same evening on SABC 1 at 20:30. Good luck to all those that were nominated and watch out for Zahara!
