#MTNSAMA18 Predictions

The 18th South African Music Awards were announced earlier this month in Newtown Johannesburg.
The new SAMA’S CEO Randall Abrahams has made a couple of changes since he was appointed late last year, surprisingly most people are actually in favour of the changes that have been made.
Decreasing the number of categories, time slot change to Monday night and going back to Sun City was a job well done by Randall and his team.
For the first time in the history for the SAMA’S, I believe a larger number of people will watch, as it will be a Monday night and not a Saturday.
As my predictions for SAMA17 were rather impressive, I thought I should give it another try.
