The Kwacha Music Awards (commonly abbreviated as a KMA) are a creation of Sun FM Radio located in Ndola to honour and pay tribute to Zambian musicians. The first KMA ceremony was held at the Mulungushi International Conference Centre 30th of September 2017 in Lusaka.

Nominees and criteria

The Kwacha Music Awards nominees are drawn from fan interactions as reflected on radio airplay countrywide. The measurements are tracked by the Awards Committee and partner radio stations and passed on to an independent panel of qualified adjudicators drawn from various Institutions, Associations and bodies involved in Music or Arts alike.

The awards are determined by a poll of the public and fans via established channels that include SMS, website and social media and are verified by an auditing firm for transparency
