Urban Music Awards - The NO. 1 premiere Urban and Dance Music awards ceremony in the world. The Urban Music awards ceremony was launched in the UK, France, Germany, Amsterdam with plans to expand to Asia, US and Africa.

Past winners at the Urban Music Awards in the UK have included; Goldie, Dizzee Rascal, Terri Walker, Beverley Knight , Raghav, Lemar, Sway, Craig David, Lethal B and many more...The Urban Music Awards has set it self as a credible awards ceremony.

Jordan Kensington, CEO and Founder of Urban Music Awards said: “The growth of Urban Music Awards since we launched the show in 2003 has been incredible, and for 2005 we crossed into the backstage sector of the urban industry that usually remains unrecognized. We introduced three new categories this year, Best Website, Best Entrepreneur and Best Magazine. For 2006, we are pleased to announce that we have signed a deal with Invincible TV , Sky Channel 368 and we’ll be having 46 build up TV shows broadcast prior to the awards ceremony. This years awards ceremony would be broadcast on The Musicians Channel, Inivncible TV(Ghana) , Invincible TV (Barbados) and Invincible TV(Jamaica) . The awards ceremony will also be the first all British based awards ceremony to be syndicated to 22 International TV networks gaining us an estimated audience of 15.4 million viewersâ€.
