Mzansi’s first amapiano awards have social media abuzz

This week, the first annual SA Amapiano Awards were announced with a string of nominees. The list sparked controversy on social media with some people questioning whether the list was as accurate as it should be, as well as disputing certain inclusions such as Uncle Vinny.

He said it was wrong that there was no amapiano awards show in 2017, 2018, 2019, or even last year, because that means everyone who worked hard during those years could not be awarded and that’s the exact wrong, they were now trying to fix.“We unfortunately couldn’t consider a song from 2019 for a Song of the Year category this year. So, this means if you are an amapiano artist, moving forward you know that there is an official awards show whose intention is to celebrate your work.

The awards are currently fully self-funded. They have been approached by a few potential sponsors and are identifying those with a vision that aligns with that of the awards. The artists driving this genre forward have had some mixed reactions to the awards.It’s something new, it’s a revolution and it will spark a lot of opinions. But many people are excited to finally be getting an awards show to celebrate amapiano.
