The list of the nominees earlier released by the inaugural committee of the South African Amapiano award (SAAP) has become a controversial topic between the genre’s lovers on Twitter because of the absence of Kelvin Momo majorly in the list and the nomination of Uncle Vinny instead
Since the release of the nominees’ list, there has been a tussle on whether it is right, justifiable or not for the music star, Uncle Vinny, few others to be among the list of artists nominated while some others like Gaba Cannal, Jaivane, Kelvin Momo, others were left out in the award nomination
