His long journey to this pinnacle of recognition has been nothing short of extraordinary, filled with dedication and an unyielding drive that’s earned him respect across the South African music landscape. Reflecting on this milestone, Reason shared his excitement with fans, expressing both gratitude and disbelief.

“My first ever SAMA award after 20 years in the game. Crazy!!!! Let me be the living testimony of what happens when you Don’t let THEM talk down on YOU for doing what THEY CANT DO!!! Stay low. Keep firing. And it won’t be too long… if you ENDURE!” He wrote, underlining the immense significance of this moment.

The industry has grown exponentially over the years, and Reason’s award highlights the talent and hard work that continues to elevate its status on both local and international stages.

The SAMA win arrives in a transformative season for Reason, who took on the alias Sizwe Alakine to explore new sounds and creative directions within the realm of amapiano. While this shift took some by surprise, his exploration has only enriched his artistry and broadened his musical reach leading him to his first ever SAMA in two decades.

Although the award isn’t specifically for a hip-hop song or contribution to the genre, Reason’s musical talent is evident in his collaboration with Kabza De Small and Mthunzi on the track “Imithandazo” from the album “Isimo.” This album garnered several accolades, including the SAMPRA Album of the Year, Radio 2000 Duo/Group of the Year, and Motsweding FM Best Amapiano Album awards. With this significant achievement under his belt, Reason is excited about the future and eager to continue creating and pushing boundaries in his music.
