The overall concept is great. It allows artists to really engage with their fans to get their voices heard and vote for their favorite artist to win.
Creators of the ASMA’s say the awards ceremony was created to bring recognition to the worlds unsigned music artists, producers, clothing designers, videographers, models, comedians, actors, video directors, DJ’s and media outlets.
Industry professionals and fans come from around the world to support the ASMA’s. Each winner receives a nice trophy along with the accolade.
