I dont know what they consider about that category but real Mozy Radio has done a big job. Goefrey Lutaaya naye akoze naye ate Mozy asinzeko, his songs go far!

They should introduce a category for Ugandan musicians in the category. I think people like Katumwa, Zani, Bataka Squad, Jaqee, etc need to be recognised.

There are some musicians who have become monotonus. we already know their music and used to their style. why not give chance to the upcoming stars?

I think Susana is 100 per cent right. Same people every year, i think its getting predictable and boaring.

By the way, how come Afrigo band and Misty Jazz band have never got any awards for best live performing bands? It amazes me alot that every year Eagles production band or Kads band take the awards they are amatures compared to Afrigo and Misty. No wounder people that dont understand music vote the most. Its a pitty.

I think Moze Radio and weazle deserved the artist of the year category.They have done great work this year round.I wouldn't complain if they were nominated most..Almost all their songs suit the "Song of the year Acorade"...!!Any way,all artists nominated are good but "Omrich" is the best!! Wait Uganda is yet to test the beauty of Music!! Thanks

Fuck bobbi wine KIMWA KILO. do you call tha singing? thats bull shit .
Ugandans cant tell singing from SHOUTING its a shame.
You leave guyz like Maurice Kirya, Qute Kaye Ham Kay and you bring KIMWA KILO BOBBI WINE the so called ghetto prezdo? You are all rubbish

PAM AWARDS,have done more harm than good to the music industry in uganda.these are business men pure.How could someone even get the guts to put bobbi wine amongst uganda,s best singers.yes he can win when it comes to changing jamaican rythms into luganda but not a musician. eagles production are not better than afrigo.,but messach,is an artiste that is better than most artistes. please what happened to the real musicians,?????
where did titan,george mulindwa,and others goooooooo.

at Monday, 29 September 2008 03:30
When I hear guys call themsleves things like Mazzi mawanvu,Munene menene en the rest,I fail to get the right word to use when describing "Omrich".I used to like Maurice's vocals,Cute kaye en titan takuba but when I heard this Guy sing,I couldn't believe he's Ugandan.WATCHOUT!!!2009 is a year of real things.We are tired of Kiwani!!We know wat music is meant to be.(In his style however,Jose Chameleon is better than all those nominated).

Thanx to Joann and Jaffer, you guys talk sence and you know what real music is all about. Were are tired of the same people every year taking awards, PUULIIZ give up coming artists a chance to shine. KIMWA KILO TWAMUKOOWA the so called gheto prezido of fire base bull shit crew. They all cant sing, what they do best is promoting GANJA [WEED} how can those MORONS be role models to upcoming artists? Its a shame.

THAT SO CALLED PAT, IS SO STUPID, HOW CAN YOU START ABUSING PEOPLE IN PUBLIC THAT KIMWA KILO SO IF HE IS THEN 4 U YOUR A SLUT ,PLSE TRY TO GIVE PEOPLE THEIR RESPECT STOP BEING ADUMANT THE OTHER MAN YOU ARE ABUSING IS FAR BETTER THAN YOU.ANYWAY BACK TO THE POINT MUSICIANS LIKE WEASLE AND RADIO ARE GOOD BUT WE SHOOD ALSO CONSIDER PEOPLE LIKE GEOFREY LUTAYA BECAUSE HE HAS BEEN IN MUSIC FOR LONG BUT WITH OUT AN AWARD,TIGAN IS ALSO SO GOOD AS FAR AS UPCOMING ARTSISTS ARE CONCERNED

hi guys well am honestly thinking' that Pam should recognize some real talent this year and give the awards to people who are supposed to get them,well speaking about talent this year GNL really deserves the award and he should have been in the category of best new artiste or group coz honestly speaking this guy is second to none when it comes to Lugaflow.so guys watch the space this year.

BEBE COOl made a name for Uganda . Presenting at Nelson Madela birthday with all high profile people is something we shouldn't under rate. It draws him to the International scene a CV for him and Record for Uganda.
Pam Award should focus on up lifting Uganda's Music industry and penetrating the international Market. The world Smell, test and enjoy the beats on Uganda artist .
Let's have many Philly Bogole lutaya's in Uganda.

We do appreciate the great job you're doing to recognise the young and rising talents in Uganda,but that's not enough. I think the organisers should make special arrangements for the top winners (1or2), to record with some international artistsfromEurope or the US and release a record you never know what happens.
We have got sop many talents in Uganda but no body knows them apart from performing in the Pubs.
TO our artists,you guys need to start composing songs in a foreign language and be consistent to it,if its English or Swahiri,try to be fluent...God BLess you all.
'' YES WE CAN'' You have to believe that God makes the impossibles possible

its sad tht after wht uganda has gone thrgh in the music industry we still have'nt learnt about the music agenda first i think the voting has alot of qns b'coz the nominee, are best on who do i knw sings well and i guess which song do pipo like most.but as a person who i feel tht i have experianced all kinds of music tht africa produces i would really ask the PAM commette to look for pipo who have improved music either socially,economically but mostly what do thy give back to the sociaty tht promotes them the bongo artists have a saying ''hao ndio kio cha njami'' they are the reflection of the community can we atleast have a begging for the music industry role in community based works,secondly look at the content of the music and wht the musician has put in up to now i have failed to understand why mourice kirya has never been recongised surely are we serious about this or its another case of the SUDIR janda lotary,thing help me out PAM help me out!!!coz am surely and painfully
