Ugandan celebrated musicians Spice Diana and Eddy Kenzo won big at the 7th Africa Entertainment Awards USA (AEAUSA) 2021 that went down in New Jersey and here we have the full list of all winners.
The climax of the prestigious annual awards painted a smile on the face of Source Management songstress, Spice Diana bagging an award for Best Female Artist- East/ South/ North Africa days after quitting the local awards for not being treated fairly by the award organisers.
Spice Diana had days ago asked Ugandan awards organizers not to nominate her in their respective awards if they feel she does not deserve to win their accolades beat Zuchu, Sherine, Zahara, Nandy, Knowless, Nadia Mukami, Tanasha Donna, Sho Madjozi, and Latifa to the accolade on Boxing Day.
Meanwhile Eddy Kenzo alias Young Mandela beat competition from Rayvanny, Harmonize, Ali Kiba, Small X, Jah Prayzah, Nordo, Morci, Elgrandetoto, and Forcalistic to fly the Ugandan flag higher in the clouds.
The night was filled with the celebration of African music from across the African Continent and the Award show was broadcasted live on AEAUSA youtube channel as Nigerian actress Nancy Isime and Kenyan comedian Eric Omondi controlled the red carpet event to the expectations of the organisers.
