DJ Ganyani wins big at the SA dance Music Awards

Some of Mzansi’s biggest names in dance and house music were honoured at the second annual Dance Music Awards South Africa in Johannesburg on Wednesday.

It was a glitzy affair at the Birchwood Hotel & OR Tambo Conference Centre hosted by Lulo Cafe. Black Coffee added yet another award to his already overflowing trophy cabinet with a Best International Artist win on the night. The award comes only weeks after he scooped an international DJ award.

Although she wasn’t able to make it to the awards Lady Zamar walked away with the Best Female Artist gong on the night and her team told TshisaLIVE she was over the moon with the win.
