#SAMAs 2018: Full list of the winners  | News Article

The 24th edition of the South African Music Awards #SAMAs took place at Sun City this past weekend. If you've missed it, herewith the full list of winners...


Shekhinah bossed the show on Saturday night, walking away with three gongs at the 24th annual South African Music Awards (Samas) on Saturday night.

The singer-songwriter was the most nominated act at this year’s awards, with six nominations for her debut album Rose Gold.

As far most awards go, she was beaten by Joyous Celebration, who were the biggest winners on the night. The gospel group won four awards, all of which were a direct result of sales.

President Cyril Ramaphosa was a special guest – and his presence elicited a mixed response.

But, if all you’re interested in is who won what, we’ve got the full list for you right here.
