CLEO ICE QUEEN NOMINATED FOR AFRIMA BEST FEMALE ARTISTE SOUTHERN AFRICA AWARD

The year 2021 might be the year of recovery for many around the world, but for Cleo Ice Queen it has been a year of harvest with her latest harvest being the only Zambian artist to be nominated at this year’s AFRIMA awards. AFRIMA which stands for All Africa Music Awards are an annual music and arts award ceremony that celebrates the best talent within the African music industry. The awards ceremony which started in 2014 has grown from strength to strength with over 3,104 nominees since inception, whilst being in a different host country each year.

Cleo Ice Queen just so happens to be joining the ranks of the 3,104 nominees in this year’s award’s shortlist under Best Female Artiste In Southern Africa for her song ‘Sensation’. She finds herself amongst great company which include fellow nominees Busiswa Ft. Dunnie, DJ Zinhle Ft. Loyiso, Kamo Mphela, Makhadzi Ft. Mr Brown, Nomcebo Zikode Ft Master KG, Sha Sha, Shekinah Ft. Bey T, Tamy Moyo and Zanda Zakuza. Some stiff competition but certainly surrounded by great contenders.

The AFRIMA nomination for Cleo Ice Queen comes at a perfect time, as she is currently in the middle of her campaign for her latest single ‘Osaibala’ which has a viral dance competition that rewards 2 winners with a nice sum of $500 each and an appearance in the song’s official music video.

The multi award winning hip hop artist who additionally has the 2017 and 2019 SunFM Best Female Award, and the AFRIMMA 2015 Award; not to be mistaken with her current award nomination, all under her belt, continues to wow fans and music listeners as she has not only been able to make waves as the top female hip hop artist in Zambia, but as a sought after brand ambassador, representing brands such as Kellogg’s, Fair&White Paris, Softcare Baby Diapers, and Hunters Dry just to name a few.

2021 is in it’s last quarter and it looks like Cleo has plenty more up her sleeve before we get into the new year, and we are here for it. Make sure you cast your vote via the link below if you would like to see Cleo Ice Queen take the award home once again.
