Mercy Masika Dominates Groove Awards 2016 As New Artistes Steal The Show (Full List Of Winners)

The Groove Awards 2016 went down yesterday as is their usual tradition and saw some big surprises along the way as some big artistes missed in categories they were expected to win.

The main awards of the night were the Male and Female Artist of The Year, The Songwriter of the Year, The Album of The Year,Song of the Year, Video Producer Of the Year as well as The Audio Producer Of the Year.

Mercy Masika was widely expected to grab the Female Artiste of the year and she deservedly did with L-Jay Maasai causing quite a surprise  beating both heavy weights Pitson and Daddy Owen  for the Male artiste of the year. Mercy Masika proved to be the biggest individual winner clinging three prizes.
