Khuli Chana has just received another SAMA 20 nomination, this time for Record of The Year for his song ‘Mnatebawen’. Although the award has never been won by a rapper, here’s hoping for change – after all Khuli did become the first rapper to take Best Male at last year’s prestigious ceremony.
As the only category solely determined by the public through a voting system, you can vote for Khuli Chana by SMSing ‘O’ and the name of your province to 33123. SMSes are charged at R1.50 and free SMSes do not apply. You can vote 10 times per mobile phone and voting closes on 24 April, days before the big ceremony on 28 April at the Sun City Superbowl. The winner will be announced live on the night.
There’s a total of 20 tracks up for the same award – so it’s all on you now.
