With the Zim Hip Hop Awards around the corner and the deadline for the artists’ applications being set we been thinking of the potential winners of the annual accolades. This article is based on opinions and if you think you have your own nominees and winners you are free to share with us in the comment box. Apparently there are only a few artists whom we gon look at and whom we think 2015 was their year. The artists whom we gon talk about below are potential winners if they submit their applications for the awards.
To begin with, the first category I’m gon look at is the Best Newcomer. There might be quite a number of rappers which will come to your mind if you think about this category. One guy who has popped up and caught people’s attention is the Bulawayo rapper Asaph. Asaph who calls himself the Zim Hip Hop Savior rose to stardom with his 2015 album called Kingsvilla. Kingsvillawhich include tracks like Burg Sosh, Potential (feat Mimie) and my personal favorite Kingsvilla is a compilation of some of the doppest Zim Hip Hop tracks which you gon put on repeat all day long and if he was to get enough air play he probably would have a couple of hit songs. If Asaph submits his application then he is one of the artists who stands a chance to win at the ZHHA.
The next category which am gon look at is the Best Male in which I have a few rappers whom I think will walk away with the accolades at the Zim Hip Hop Awards. The first guy whom I think is gon walk away with this accolade is Gze, one of the best lyricist in the industry. Gze’s Chimio which featured Jnr Brown might make just make him the best male artist this year. Another artist who will be contesting this award is the Bulawayo based Luveve boy, Cal Vin. Cal who recently launched his album made people nod their heads with his hit track Zkhupani which also saw him make a collaboration of the same track’s remix with one of Africa’s best, Cassper Nyovest. The other contestants include the king of vernacular rap, Noble Styles and Soko Matemai, Sharky.
Anyway, how can we talk about the the Zim Hip Hop Awards without mentioning the femcees. These females have shown that they are capable of going neck to neck with their male counterparts. One of the femcees whom might take the Best Female award is the Masofa Panze queen Blackperl. Blackperl’s recent offering might just add her an advantage on winning the best female accolade as track has wowed many Hip Hop followers in Zim.
Now it’s only left to the artists to submit their applications for the awards and remember this is an opinion based article and if you don’t agree with it haisi nyaya gara wakadaro lol.
