Luthando “Lootlove” Shosha and Tebogo “Proverb” Thekisho will host the Metro FM Music Awards at the Mbombela Stadium in Mpumalanga on April 27. Lootlove recently made her way back to Metro FM when the station announced its new line-up for 2024–2025. She co-hosts “The Touchdown” with Thabo “Tbo Touch” Molefe. Proverb, the former rapper who co-hosted and co-produced the Idols SA for more than 10 seasons, said it was an honour to host the Metro FM Awards 2024.
“The SA music scene is constantly filled with rich, vibrant stories of our ever-resilient and evolving country, and the nominated artists are testament to this,” said Proverb.
Lootlove said hosting the awards was a monumental career moment for her, which she was thrilled and excited about.As I step into the role of hosting my first awards ceremony, I’m eager to bring joy, laughter, and unforgettable moments to the awards show, alongside Proverb,” she said.
“Here is to creating magic together on screen. Black to the Future, indeed. Radio personality and DJ Lamiez Holworthy and 5FM’s Afternoon Drive presenter, Zanele Potelwa, will co-host and capture all the winners’ thrills from the “Green Room”.
The Best Mornings host DJ Sabby and SABC1 presenter Nomalanga “The Flame” Shozi will bring all the action from the Motsepe Foundation-sponsored black carpet. This year’s awards will take place against the backdrop of 30 years of South Africa’s democracy.
Metro FM business manager, Kina Nhlengethwa, said South African music was thriving, attracting new audiences globally, and inspiring black excellence.
“It was only fitting that this year’s theme be carried by some of the industry’s best presenters, who bring a wealth of knowledge about diverse facets of the SA arts and entertainment scene,” said Nhlengethwa.
