The music industry is waiting for the South African Music Awards with bated breath and the organisers have already released a major announcement.
Entertainment SA has gathered that actress and musician Nandi Madida is set to host this year’s SAMA event that will be staged at Sun City, North West, later this month.
According to RISA CEO Nhlanhla Sibisi, Madida will be one of the faces of the highly anticipated glittering ceremony that will be aired on SABC1 on August 28.
This comes after Madida hosted the Samas event two years ago and was named on Tuesday by SAMA28 as one of the many hosts that will be revealed in due course.
“With just under two weeks until the main event, we are working tirelessly to put together a world-class celebration of musical excellence during Women’s Month,” said Sibisi.

“We are particularly excited that the charismatic Nandi Madida agreed to host #SAMA28. She is an example of the bold, compelling, and immensely talented women we wish to acknowledge, uplift, and empower.
“We hope that fans are buying their tickets so they can join us for this spectacular calendar event.”
Speaking after the pronouncement, the Maphumulo-born actress in KwaZulu-Natal expressed delight, saying she is humbled.
“When I accepted my first Sama in 2020 for my collaboration with KO, Say U Will, I would not have imagined that I would be hosting just two years later,” said the 34-year-old.
“I am humbled to have been trusted with this honour and look forward to bringing unforgettable moments to the #SAMA28 stage alongside my co-hosts.”
As expected, the SAMA28 event will honour and dish out 30 awards to deserving musicians and stakeholders in the Mzansi music industry.
