Focalistic, Major League DJz, Makhadzi and soccer coach Pitso Mosimane have been nominated in the Favourite African Star category while Sbahle and Uncle Vinny are in the running for Favourite African Kidfluencer.
According to organisers of the awards, they nominated Focalistic because he had a long history of lifting the African flag on a global scale.
