Music & Film Awards 2020 is finally out.

Africa’s regional representation from the East to the West, the North to the South and central Africa has been represented within the judging process.

Big names from the region have fused with upcoming artists to make up a fine blend of Pan-African talent in this year’s Awards.

“We are elated to see the big thread of names and quite inspired to see new upcoming artists from Across Africa taking up center-stage and claiming critical space. This is exactly the spirit of the awards which we needed to see”, Said

Dr. Fred Simiyu, the Chairman of the Kisima Music & Film awards.

This year the Pan African Kisima Music & Film Awards was presided over by a Pan-African Jury made up of Music and Film Experts from across the Continent.

The judges were from different African countries encompassing Kenya, Benin, Nigeria, Mozambique and Rwanda.

The blend of the Jury takes into consideration the Anglophone, francophone and Lusophone diversities of the submissions into the awards. In this new Pan-Africa infusion, every part of the

continent in their language diversity is represented.
