#GenNext2016

The kids have spoken and their favourites have been awarded.

Yesterday, the 12th annual Sunday Times Generation Next Awards took place at the Sandton Convention Centre and boy weren’t those kids excited. I have never seen kids have so much fun, I even got caught up in the fun.

These awards are based on an annual survey which highlight the brands that South African youth, aged 8-22, love.

Some of the catergories awarded were:

The coolest bank award went FNB

FNB-logo-official

Coolest radio station went to Metrofm

and seems like our youth definitely love their fast German cars with BMW taking the award coolest car.

It was a tight one and Mr Super mega himself, AKA has reigned supreme as the dominating rapper and coolest local musican, with Casper Nyovest  missing out on that title.

And of cause Mr Super Mega, will never shy away from gloating that, YES, I am the greatest South African Rapper and the kids have spoken.

AKA

Pearl Thusi, who had earlier given a talk on brand awareness (and was wearing that bling on her engagement finger), took home the Coolest Local Female Screen Star accolade.

Not only did th kids have fun voting for Pearl Thusi and AKA as their favourite. What is an award season without sweets, and Jelly Tots took the award for the most coolest sweets
