The VNZMA's


Quite a mouthful there.... the Vodafone New Zealand Music Awards are fast approaching on the 8th of October.
This ceremony marks the 43rd annual awards, and they grow every year... this year outgrowing their old home at the Aotea Centre and moving into a new home at the Vector Arena. This means tabled seating instead of rows which i'm sure will be much more civilised!! Until you throw the drunk musicians into the mix of course...

Anyway, Dirty has a nice healthy bunch of nominations this year, thanks to man of the moment Tiki and 'blitzer of 2004 with a mighty 7 wins' Scribe.

Tiki led the way this year with 6 nominations; Best Album, Best Single, Breakthrough Artist, Best Male Solo, Best Maori Album and Best Aotearoa Roots Album, plus Best Video for Carey Carter and his work on Tangaroa, while Scribble has 2, Album of the Year and Best Hip Hop Album.

October 8th will see the Dirty crew stalking the red carpet and hopefully leaving with handfuls of awards. If Scribe wins this year for Best Hip Hop, that will make a solid 5 years in a row with Dirty Records taking out the top spot.

Past winners from the camp have been:
2004 - Scribe, The Crusader
2005 - P Money, Magic City
2006 - Frontline, Borrowed Time
2007 - PNC, Rookie Card
