SATMA 2014: The voting has opened


It was all excitement as the final nominees of the 2014 SATMA awards were announced at the Gala dinner event on Saturday 30 August 2014. The glamorous event was held at the Mmabatho Convention Centre in Mahikeng. Artists and their supporters, dressed mostly in traditional gear came out in numbers to celebrate with the nominees of the awards which seek to celebrate the South African traditional music and dance.
The public is urged to go all out and show their support for these artists by voting for their favourite artists/groups. The awards will be held on the 18th of October 2014 at the University of Fort Hare in the Eastern Cape.
 
The final nominees for the Best Tshivenda Album are Gift Maringa, April Ramufhi, Tycoon 4 sure and Adziambei Band. Other artists in otrher categories include the ever-energetic Vendaboy Poet (Rrrrrrr), Prince Nyadzawela (The project), Funi Nematswerani (Ndi tshifhinga), Humbulani Ramagwedzha (Ndi khou diphina ndi na inwi), Jah Soldiers (Nndededze).
The public must note that this year’s voting system will be a bit different to the previous years. Voters will have to use special SATMA awards sim cards (powered by Vodacom) to vote, which are available from SATMA offices upon request.
