Babes and Shimora call out the SAMAs

In 2017, the West Ink boss slammed the South African Music Award (SAMAs) after Babes Wodmuo lost out on an award.

Their outburst was fuelled by this snub, and Shimora even alleged that some artists pay bribes for their awards. The couple then apologised for their remarks:

“We wish to apologise to all our supporters and society in general for the outburst by some of us soon after the SAMAs ceremony. This unfortunate situation was due to the number of calls we were receiving from thousands of music lovers who were disappointed about the outcomes of the ceremony.

"The moral story is people don’t value people when they’re still around but sombre on social networks when they’re gone."

benji_lesh added:

"They laughed when Mampintsha stood up for his woman for not winning a SAMA. Jay did the same thing this weekend at the Grammys, and suddenly he was so classy, and the world applauded."

"Tell me you're joking. I love Shimora nonetheless."
