The organizers of pan-African music awards, Kora Awards, have revealed that the winner of the Best Artist of the Continent at the 2015 edition of the award will receive a grand prize of $1 million as it officially calls for entries from musicians across the African continent and Diaspora.

Kora said only artistes who have been voted as best of their region on the continent will be eligible for the Best Artist of the Continent trophy and prize. It said the financial reward for other categories will only be given to award winners who are in attendance at the awards ceremony with absent artists awarded the trophy alone.

This year’s edition, targeted at celebrating excellence in musical artistry in Africa and Diaspora, has 27 categories across regions and genres, and a monetary reward associated with each trophy.

The 2015 edition of Kora will take place on December 13 in Windhoek, Namibia.

“The song or songs participating in the competition must have been published between January 1, 2014 and July 15, 2015,” the organisers said. “The songs must be of quality, must not be damaged and must be readable on any drive.”
