The AfriMusic Song Contest is pan-African song contest loosely inspired by the Eurovision Song Contest. It was first held in 2018, when Eswatini won with Symphony performing the song "Sengikhona". The contest is planned to continue as an annual event, acting as an African counterpart to the continental song contests such as Eurovision Song Contest, ABU Song Festivals or Caribbean Song Festival.[1] Currently, the contest runs on digital platforms, however, for the 3rd or 4th year organizers declare the goal is to create festival events in each participating country for the national selections and have the finals in the form of a concert hosted in the winning country from the previous year with implementation of SMS voting.[2][3][4][5]

History

Prior to the launch of AfriMusic Song Contest, several unrelated unsuccessful attempts to start a song competition involving countries of African continent took place, including:

  • Song Of Africa - was planned to be held on May 25, 2011 in Johannesburg, South Africa as the European Broadcasting Union licensed version of the Eurovision Song Contest with the participation of nine to ten countries of the Sub-Saharan Africa. The overall contest cost was estimated between 15-20 million South African rand ($1.7-2.3 million) with the final deal for the license priced "some hundred thousand" US dollars yet to be signed, which was called by the organizing team in face of Brenda Sakellarides[6] at the moment of the announcement in May 2009 a financial challenge to put together.[7]
  • Africa Song / Le Chant De L'Afrique - was due to take place in December 2014, organized by Africa Song Holdings Limited legally registered in Mauritius with the key personnel from South Africa.[8] It was planned that each participating country would hold a national competition to select a song to represent them. The final was supposed to be a state-of-the-art, world class television production, consisting of live televised performances of each countries' selected song. Nine countries were believed to confirm their participation: Benin, Burundi, DR Congo, Ghana, Madagascar, Nigeria, Republic of the Congo, Rwanda and Zambia with private television station Muvi TV, with ten further expressing initial interest in the competition. Event was eventually cancelled due to the lack of funding.[9][10][11][12]
  • All Africa Song Contest - was due to be hosted in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia in 2015, organized by Kush Communications, London based production company led by Zeinab Badawi. Each country in Africa was supposed to be represented by a singer selected by its Ministry of Culture, and the show was due to contain five heats with entries presented in the form of a pre-recorded video, and the live final. Entries from Botswana, Gambia, Guinea-Bissau, Malawi, Rwanda, Somalia, South Sudan and Swaziland were already chosen for the competition that was said to have the backing of UNESCO, the African Union, and was being sponsored by Coca-Cola at this initial stage.[13][14][15][16][17]
Arab states from Africa have the opportunity to take part in ASBU organized Arab Song Festival that was hosted at its headquarters in Tunis biennially since 2001 to 2013, and which is planned to revive in 2019.[18][19] In 2008 the EBU has announced signing a deal to license the Eurovision Song Contest format to Nibras Media company from Riyadh, Saudi Arabia that was supposed to produce in partnership with Tanweer Group from Dubai, UAE, Eurovision equivalent for MENA region called Arabian Vision with a participation of eight or nine broadcasters, which was not established since.[20][7][21]

Algeria, Egypt, Morocco and Tunisia currently have broadcasters - Members of the European Broadcasting Union, which makes them eligible for the Eurovision Song Contest participation with Morocco competing in Eurovision 1980,[22][23] while artists from Benin, Cameroon, Sudan, Tunisia and Zambia have taken part in various ABU Song Festivals as African Union of Broadcasting invited acts.

Organizers

Organizing team of the event, AfriMusic Executive Body [EXCO], includes: Managing Director and Executive Producer Michelle Fernandes[24] (who has prior experience of working on such events as South African Music Awards (SAMAs),[25] SA Sport Awards, MTV Africa Music Awards (MAMAs), Namibian Music Awards, Zambia Music Awards and others),[26] Business Development and Sponsorship Director Suzie Vicente and West Africa Producer Samuel Moses Opoku-Agyemang (Kwabena Poku).[27][28] Headquarters are located in Johannesburg, South Africa.[29]

Format

Launching the event in August 2017, organizers promised it to be "a wonderful integration of musical styles, cultures and ethnicities that reflect the diversity and varying styles within the African continent" and to "provide established and aspiring song writers the platform to showcase their best work".[30][31] Aiming primarily to select "Best Song In Africa" and to "to shine the spotlight on the best songwriters in Africa", it's declared goal is also establishment of "a platform that will educate, motivate and grow the music industry in Africa through its music room sessions and industry education programs".[1]

The contest runs in five stages:[32][33][34][35]

  • Pre-Registration: Interested songwriters or artists need to complete pre-registration forms with their contact details to obtain official regulations (available in English, French and Portuguese languages) and entry submission instructions.[36]
  • Entries submission: Complete package of the required documents has to be digitally submitted including: Full track, Vocals only track, Instrumental track, Lyrics sheet, Music video of the song (if available), Professional images and Biography of the artist, Biography of the songwriters, Written consent of both artist and songwriters to the rules of the contest, Clearance letter from the record label (if the artist is signed to any).
  • Vetting: The AfriMusic Song Contest EXCO reviews all entered songs to ensure they comply with the rules. A maximum of 20 songs can be put forward per participating country.
  • National or Regional Selections: Competing entries are published on the contest's digital platforms in the form of presentation, lyric or music videos and are judged by the Expert Jury panels and the Public on the Votality platform with predetermined number of entries from each Country/Region being chosen to qualify to the Final. Each National/Regional Expert Jury formed by AfriMusic EXCO should include 3-4 key members from the music industry of African Continent and 1 international expert or member of the Eurovision community. While any interested member of the public from any part of the world can vote for any song in any National/Regional Selection, corresponding Expert Jury votes only in its pre-set Region.
  • Final: Predetermined number (approximately 20) entries compete in the Final, and are judged in the similar way by one large Expert Jury and the Public. The result of each discipline first is calculated separately: Entry receiving the most Public or Jury votes respectively gets 12 points, second most - 10 points, third - 8 points etc, ninth rated entry gets 2 points and all entries ranked ten and below - 1 point, which makes infamous nul points impossible in AfriMusic. An average from the Jury voting score and Public voting score is then calculated to determine the Winner. In case of a tie, public voting takes precedence. Votes are audited by an independent auditing firm.

Eligibility

Eligible entries are original songs which have not been commercially released or published with maximum duration of 4.5 minutes. Performing artist must be at least 18 years of age and be citizen or permanent resident in the participating country (any of 54 sovereign countries of Africa or partially recognized Western Sahara,[32][37] not depending on African Union of Broadcasting membership). If born in another country and qualifies for dual citizenship, an artist may enter the competition representing country of family origin. Each songwriter can enter up to 3 songs. No lyrics of political nature, unacceptable language or messages promoting any organization or institution are allowed.[32][38]
