Sha Sha goes international
She is a powerhouse on the South African dance music scene. In fact, if you were not jamming to a song that she was featured on in December last year when we were allowed to play outside, were you even in South Africa?
Sha Sha bagged her first international accolade, as the Viewer’s Choice Best New International Act, at the prestigious 2020 BET Awards. This award was decided by fans and the ceremony was held virtually due to the global pandemic.
Sha Sha, whose real name is Charmaine Mapimbiro, was up against the likes of the UK's Young T & Bugsey from the #DontRush Challenge.
