We here at Weazel want to help highlight and recognize that talent; That’s why we are officially announcing the Weazel Music Awards! With a large number of categories, there are opportunities for every artist to submit themselves for consideration! Below are the categories being presented this time around:

WILDCARD CATEGORY
Best Diss Track
Every WMAs, we will be choosing a new Wildcard Category – This time around, it will be the best diss track! This song can be from any genre!
We will be announcing the Wildcard Category for the next WMAs at the award ceremony!
One submission per artist.
Best Song
With all of these categories, containing truly outstanding music, one song will earn the prestigious award of Best Song of the First Weazel Music Awards.
One submission per artist.
Best Artist
One of the most prestigious categories in the Weazel Music Awards, only one artist can go home with the award for Best Artist. Who will win???
Now, you might be asking yourself: How can I submit myself or my work for consideration?!
To submit yourself or your work for consideration for the categories, there is a fee of $1,000 (per category) for submission, which will go towards producing the ceremony and more. You can either pay via invoice or in person with Artemis or Rhylee from Weazel!
The submission itself can be done via the form below! (Please fill it out more than once if you wish to be considered for more than one category).
Note: Submissions for consideration must be done by the artist/producer themselves. Not every submission is guaranteed a place as a final nominee – The $1,000 fee is required for submission whether final nominee status is achieved.
It is important to note that with how many amazing musicians there are in San Andreas, not every artist can be recognized this time around – But do not fret! The WMAs will happen every five (5) to six (6) months! And once an artist wins a particular category, they will not be able to submit themselves in that particular category for the next one (1) WMAs! They can still submit for other categories.
Another detail to note: While the First WMAs will be open to any and all song submissions from the artists of San Andreas, the Second WMAs will require that the songs be made after the First WMAs!
All submissions will be reviewed by our committee of judges, after which we will reach out to the final nominees – Then, a public announcement! Once we’ve made preparations, there will be an exclusive invite-only award ceremony to announce the victors; And an article will be released to the public afterwards to share the results out into the world!
Last but not least: We want to wish everyone the best of luck! We can’t wait to see the best of what you’re capable of!
The deadline for submissions is November 30th, 2022.
