AKA has added yet another award to his growing trophy cabinet after he won the award for Best Male Southern Africa at the annual All Africa Music Awards (Afrimmas) on Sunday.

This isn’t the first time the late rapper has won at the Afrimmas, which are widely regarded as the most prominent awards show on the continent.

He’s won several awards, including Best African Collaboration at the 2015 awards where he notably also put on a show-stopping performance.

Speaking on the latest award, AKA’s parents, Lynn and Tony Forbes, shared their gratitude to AKA’s fanbase, The Megacy.

“Thank you to the Megacy for voting and bringing another award home. Kiernan’s legacy continues to live because of all of you. The AFRIMMAS were special to him, and winning this award for a third time is something we as a family will cherish.”
