However last night’s awards offered us an unexpected highlight which was the honouring of musicians Sho Madjozi, Cassper Nyovest and Lady Zamar as legends. They were acknowledged for putting their best foot forward in building on the culture of Kwaito and Mzansi House music sounds with their unique interpretations of the genres.
Sho Madjozi who has in recent weeks seen much excitement in her career due to her hit song John Cena, also got an early Christmas present, she was awarded Best Gqom Artist her Limpopo Champions League album.
Cassper in the next two weeks will be doing his “homecoming” Fill Up series in his hometown of Mafikeng. The series has set a tone in the Mzansi music scene and is a trend no other artist has been able to successfully copycat.
No wonder these artists are being recognised while still young.
