In a truly South African moment, local bands Goldfish, Mafikizolo and Gangs of Ballet are all in the running for the title of Best African Act at the MTV European Music Awards in November.
Local techno-dance group, Goldfish have been listed as one of the four confirmed nominees for the award along with Davido from Nigeria, Diamond from Tanzania and Toofan from Togo.
Mafikizolo and Gangs of Ballet have been listed on the wild card list for a chance to be named, by the fans, as the fifth nominee for the category.
Fans of the bands can tweet their vote by tweeting #MTVEMA followed by #NominateGangsOfBallet "or "#NominateMafikizolo" before the 14th of September.
Go ahead and vote! We would love to see an SA band walk away with the win!
