I still don’t buy the stunts the Pan-African KORA All-Africa Music Awards organizers have pulled with the Best African act category. anyway, I have received several emails requesting that i post the nominee list.
over 70 african talents are competing for the whooping $1m cash prize for the Best African Act and 35 of these remarkable talents hail from the West African region..and (of course) the host country, Nigeria dominates with 11 nominees that include:
2face Idibia – if love is a crime
Asa – fire
D’banj – why me
Infinity – olori oko
Olu Maintain- yahoozee
P-square – do me
Rooftop MCs- la gi mo
Sammie Okposo and X Generation – many reasons (no more drama)
Sasha P – adara
Ty bello – freedom
X-project - lori le
Yinka ayefele n his merry maker band – odun ikore

Watch out for the Botswana Traditional group Dikakapa in the best Southern African Category.The group is too good more so that it plays pure tswana cultural music not to mention their dance style.Just like the group’s name,They are physically strong.
Why did you people forget to mention ACHO who is also a Nigerian who was nominated for best african artist/grpoup in the caribean.You should do your research well before publishing
What more can one say its naija andwe’re ahead of the game well i’m sure a Nigerian will take money home,i almost like its for olu because the song that took him to the lime light is related to the money haha but i believe the D banj is the best art,he’s not really a great singer but he has the energy to entertain and that’s just what makes an artiste.
why is 9ice not nominated? this is very bad cos d guy is doing great
2face is the winner
I like PSquare alot and thier music but I think 2face is bringing the money home. Up 2babaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!
have you forgotten about 9ice,why is everyone so partial
9ice is not a good musician…count him out….he sing in yoruba and i hate that..they dont recognize him outside the country

D’banj is the best n why is olu maintain nominated n 9ice is not included. Go win d award kokomassssssssster
what happens to those whop take the gospel music all over the world like sammie okposo. i know he will win this by Gods grace
oh yinka ayefele deserves the award.despite that he sings in nigeria languages,the english part of his music is fabulous.I attended one of his show in chicago(US) this year,he is the best Gospel artiste in africa at the moment
well 4 me d bang is coooooooool,p square is a bang,but i wish 9nice was nominated,but all in all 2babaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa is d winner & i pray he comes home with the money.His album if love is a crime is out of this world & is loved by all both old & young. 2 FACE YOURE THE BEST.
