The second edition of the African Muzik Magazine Awards AFRIMMA took place this past weekend in Dallas and the whole city was brought to a standstill with the influx of fans and African music superstars. With wonderful performances from Yuri Da Cunha, Yvonne Chaka Chaka, Carlou D, Kcee and more, the star studded event in front of a sold out venue proved a true celebration of African music in Diaspora.
