Jordan Kensington ,Founder and Chairman of the Urban Music Awards, commented: “Urban Music in the UK has finally changed, the vision we set out to achieve over 17 years ago has happened.
“With 17th edition of the Urban Music Awards there has to be a maturity that reflects the entire industry.
“There are a plethora of people who work behind the scenes to make artists successful. From managers to publicists, booking agents to producers, songwriters and many more and the UMA felt like it was integral at this level of growth in the industry to annually recognise and both celebrate their achievements each year and become the first Music awards ceremony to properly champion the front and backstage sector in one arena.”
The winners will be announced at a ceremony hosted in London on February 14.
