UNATHI ON HOSTING THE BASADI IN MUSIC AWARDS
Speaking about the esteemed awards ceremony, which takes place on Women’s Month, Unathi said they will be celebrating each others’ strength and journies as women.

“There’s magic that happens when you surround yourself with women chasing their dreams and breaking down barriers. Being a part of Basadi in Music Awards last year was truly special, and to be invited back as host fills me with an even deeper sense of joy. It is a chance to celebrate the journeys of these incredible artists who inspire me daily,” Unathi said.

“This year, we’ll be reflecting on our own journeys, and embracing the strength we find in each other. It will be a night filled with the magic of music, the power of sisterhood and a celebration that will leave us all shimmering long after the curtain falls.”

Last year, Unathi replaced Khanyi Mbau as the host of the awards show.

‘GIRL IN THE MIRROR’
The theme for this year’s event will be “Girl in the Mirror: Our Re.Flexion”. Think metallics and sequins but remember the signature BIMA footwear twist: sneakers.

BIMAs CEO Hloni Modise Matau also shared her excitement: “We are thrilled to have Unathi back as our host and eagerly anticipate another stellar performance. The road to #Basadiinmusic2024 continues and we look forward to celebrating the exceptional talent and achievements of South African women in music.

“Join us for a night of stunning performances, empowering recognition, and unforgettable entertainment. Don’t forget the theme, ‘Girl in the Mirror: Our Re.Flexion’, we want to see you shine.’’
