Askia and Libianca win big at the AFRIMMA Awards 2023! It’s always exciting to see talented artists being recognized for their hard work and creativity.

Askia’s victory as the Best Female Rap Act is truly remarkable, especially considering that she is the first Cameroonian artist to triumph in this category. Her song “Ngarma” featuring Mr Leo must have resonated with the audience and the judges, showcasing her exceptional talent and unique style. It’s a significant achievement for Askia and a proud moment for the Cameroonian music industry.

Libianca’s win as the Best Female Artist Central Africa is equally impressive. Her chart-topping hit song “People” must have captivated listeners and showcased her artistry and vocal prowess. It’s wonderful to see artists like Libianca making their mark and representing Central Africa on such a prestigious platform.
