SAHHA Announces Nominees for its 2020 Virtual Show

The 9th Annual South African Hip Hop Awards returns with a new theme “The New World Order”. The theme idea comes after looking at what has been happening in the last year around the world.

“After the world was reinstated to hard lockdowns where we all found ourselves confined to our homes, glued to the tv set, computers and our phones via twitter, instagram, facebook and tik tok and we where told we must get use to the new normal. Thus the concept theme “NEW WORLD ORDER”  – Osmic Menoe, S.A Hip Hop Awards Director.
After a successful run last year, the 9th instalment of the SA Hip Hop Awards (#SAHHA2020) will return with what has been dubbed as “The New Order” which is the theme for this year. The show will boast a number of appearances, live performances and tributes by today’s leading musicians within the Hip Hop culture and will be aired on SABC 1 on the 12th of December 2020.

The biggest night in South African Hip Hop will bring a new twist this year as the production team alongside the show sponsors namely SABC 1, Arts Alive, City Of Jo’burg, Stylin’ Dredz, Hennessy and the newly formed South African Hip Hop Museum has been working closely with our government officials and after much consideration, due to the COVID-19 pandemic have decided to do the show virtually because health and safety of artists, fans, industry, staff, and partners is of the utmost importance.
