Tiwa Savage just won the award for best female artiste at the on-going MAMAs while Davido won for the male category. They both beat their other African contemporaries to it. God bless Nigeria!



Hosted by American actor/comedian Marlon Wayans and boasting show stopping performances from Trey Songz, Miguel and French Montana; the MTV Africa Music Awards 2014 was a big night for music in Africa as Durban, South Africa housed the majority of musical forces across the continent who attended the prestigious ceremony which returned after the long break.

Sarkodie from Ghana is on some serious things oo. He won some awards too for best rap days ago. He raps in their language but very good. Sarkodie & ice Prince "shots on shots" listen to it.  I like him.
