In less than one month, American hip-hop sensation DJ Khaled will be hosting the 2021 MTV Africa Music Awards (MAMA) from his lavish home in the United States. It will be the first time the award will be streamed globally as countries race to get vaccines for the deadly coronavirus.
The capricious virus which battered the global entertainment industry affected the in-person gathering of the award that is returning after a four-year hiatus.
“The pandemic made industries radically push the boundaries of creativity and innovation to survive. And I think that’s never been more relevant than with the MAMAs and the way it is reimagined,” said Senior Vice President and General Manager of ViacomCBS Networks Africa, Monde Twala during the virtual unveiling of the awards last year.
