Mark your calendars! Basadi in Music Awards (BIMAs) are back for a triumphant third year on 10 August 2024, once again gracing the Mandela stage at Joburg Theatre.
Founded in 2022, BIMA is a beacon of recognition and empowerment, celebrating the phenomenal achievements of women in all facets of the music industry. From singers and rappers who grace the stage to the skilled DJs, composers, producers, and creative masterminds behind the scenes, BIMA elevates and showcases the powerful women shaping the industry’s soundscape.
This year’s theme, Girl in the Mirror – Our Re.flexion, carries a powerful message of self-discovery and healing. The number three, often associated with optimism, creativity, and growth, reflects on the journey of BIMA and the incredible impact it has made over the past two years.
Girl in the Mirror – Our Re.flexion encourages women to confront their reflections with courage, embracing both strengths and vulnerabilities. The symbolic use of broken glass represents the transformation from a shattered object into a masterpiece, a testament to the resilience of the female spirit.
Details regarding nominations and voting for the 2024 Basadi in Music Awards will be announced soon.
