SAMA 22: Beste Kontemporer Musiek Album

This prize awards the very best Afrikaans-language music of the year. Mixing acoustic ballads with more upbeat numbers, Stiaan Reynierse's distinctive, husky voice would make his rootsy, alternative country a strong contender anywhere. Andriette flies the flag for the mainstream at the other end of the South African music spectrum with her infectious and glossy pop music.
