Musicians have paid a fitting farewell to the late South African queen of pop, Brenda Fassie.
On Saturday, the South African Music Awards 10 named her albums Memeza and Vul'indlela for two prestigious awards.
Vul'indlela received the song of the decade award and Memeza the award for best-selling release. The album sold 550 000 copies.
In a tribute to the artist, who died a few weeks ago, the audience at the glittering Sun City event gave Fassie a standing ovation.
Among the performers to pay tribute was Lebo Mathosa of Boom Shaka who belted out Fassie's timeless hit, Too Late For Mama.
Sama 10 did not pay tribute only to Fassie - her producer Sello "Chicco" Twala was honoured with a lifetime achievement award.
Minister of Arts and Culture Pallo Jordan presented the award to Twala. "He is not only an elite performer but is respected in the industry as a musician," Jordan said.
Lifetime achievement awards were also given to legendary Afro-pop group Juluka and the late penny-whistle player, "Big Voice" Jack Lerole.
Lerole's daughter Thendani, who accepted the award, was forced off stage by hand claps from young fans in the auditorium who disapproved of her lengthy acceptance speech.
One of the ceremony's surprises had newcomer Swazi Dlamini walk off with best female artist in the jazz category for My First Love.
Miriam Makeba took home several awards - including best jazz vocal album for her latest album, Reflections, best adult contemporary album as well as the best DVD.
Skwatta Camp scooped the award for best rap album with Mkhukhu Funk, while the statuette for best kwaito album was snatched by golden kid Kabelo Mabalane.
Kwaito's Mzekezeke received two prestigious awards in absentia - artist of the year and song of the year.
The best newcomer award went to Coca-Cola Popstars winners Adilah.
