In its second year, the MTV Africa Music Awards, with Zain, showcases the wealth of musical talent that Africa has to offer and provides the ultimate vehicle for young Africans to salute the African and international artists that rock their worlds. The 2009 winners will be unveiled on 10 October 2009 at the Indoor Arena, Moi International Sports Centre, Nairobi, Kenya.
