For centuries our ancestors used music as a communication tool to express their feelings and to celebrate, this still holds true today. When it comes to SA Popular Music Awards, music is a big and important part of their DNA, a universal language that unites, heals, and builds societies. As a people, we found solace and hope in music during difficult times of apartheid and that gave us a voice!

NO ENTRY FEE IS REQUIRED. The only requirement is that music must be #popular.

Public participation is at the core of the awards-from submitting entries to vote for the five main big winners from each genre. A panel of judges will take over the process by shortlisting four finalists in each category and genre- which will be determined by the number of nominations/entries an artist has received from the public, record label, and their peers in the industry. – SA Popular Music Awards.

Following the collation of nominees for all categories, nominees will be announced at SAPMA’s discretion. A panel of judges which will consist of music and creative industry experts will determine the 2021 SAPMA winners, with the exception of Special Awards and the five categories voted for by the public.

SAPMAs strongly encourage the development and preservation of our music culture and appreciation of our icons while they are still alive. As a result, this year the awards will host two main big events.

A Night of Legends Gala Dinner on 24 July 2021-where legends such as Yvonne Chaka Chaka, Vusi Leeuw, Morris Roda, Mahotella Queens, and Ihashe Elimhlophe will be honored while also keeping the legacies of our late music icons and legends alive such as Jabu Khanyile, Nana Coyote, Stompie Mavi, and Lebo Mathosa, who will be appreciated on that night. They might be gone but their footprint in music will remain. – SA Popular Music Awards.

The final winners will be announced at the second main event-the Awards Ceremony to be held a week later at one of the biggest and opulent venues in the country-the Sun Arena, Pretoria on 31 July 2021. – SA Popular Music Awards.

The #Popular genres include Afro, Hip Hop, Mbaqanga/Maskandi, Gospel, and Mapiano/Gqom/Kwaito
