About the Show

The Metro FM Music Awards (MMAs) is an annual South African music awards ceremony hosted by radio station Metro FM and produced initially by S'khonyana Productions and later Blue Moon which honours local artists who've contributed significantly to the local music industry in the preceding year.

The awards were established in 2000 and are broadcast annually as a TV special on SABC1, except for in 2012 when there were was no awards ceremony.

The 13th Metro FM Music Awards took place at the International Conference Centre (ICC) in Durban on Saturday 1 March, 2014, hosted by Pearl Thusi and Phat Joe.

The awards aired live on SABC1 from 20h00-22h00. The special was two hours long.

About the MMAs

The Metro FM Music Awards are a special honour given to local artists who've contributed significantly to the local music industry.

Recording companies and artists are requested to send in release dates for their artists' albums and those dates must fall within the window period specified, to qualify for the MMA. An independent panel of judges then places these submissions within the 18 categories.

It is after this process that each panel members casts his/her vote, which they then hand over to an SABC Group Internal Audit representative at the voting session.

There is only one person from Metro FM who sits on the panel of 7 judges. The other panelists comprise of music industry experts and credible journalists.

It is after this process that a nomination list of five artists per category is released to the public, to vote for their favourite artists via sms. The top three artists with the most votes are then announced as finalists.

The public is again informed of this and they then vote for the top artists who will walk away with the coveted MMA in each category.
