Submit Your Music for the AFRIMA Diamond Showcase 2026 (via TSA Radio)

Africa’s biggest celebration of music is back — and this year, the AFRIMA Diamond Showcase is opening its doors to emerging talents across the continent. This brand-new platform, curated by the All Africa Music Awards (AFRIMA), is designed to spotlight the next generation of African stars: the artists shaping the sound of tomorrow.

If you’re an artist, this is your moment — and TSA Radio is here to help get you through the door.

TSA Radio is now officially opening music submissions for artists who wish to be considered for the AFRIMA Diamond Showcase — a platform dedicated to spotlighting Africa’s most promising emerging talent.

For the 2026 edition, only 15 exceptional acts will be selected, and these rising stars will go on to perform live at the AFRIMA Music Awards in Lagos in January 2026.

If you're an artist looking to elevate your career and be seen on one of Africa’s most respected music stages, here’s how to submit your work through TSA Radio.

It’s a smooth, late-night blend made for early weekend vibes, heavy log drums, warm chords, and that unmistakable SA groove.
