The South Sudan Music Awards are presented annually since 2019 with the aim of celebrating South Sudanese singers, dancers, DJs, producers and comedians from both home and abroad.

Moses Yasin, SSMA brand ambassador, said: “I want to ensure our transparency in every aspect of the process, and I urge members of the public to use their votes with full confidence. This will be virtually held due to the COVID-19 pandemic,”

The SSMA seeks to foster the development of the South Sudan music industry by recognizing and rewarding musicians who excel in the South Sudanese music genres: Reggae, Hip Hop, Afro Pop, R&B, Dance-hall and Traditional.

Those awards are organized as part of group efforts to make the cultural heritage and natural resources in South Sudan more visible and preserved.
