Global Music Royalty Nominees
We are looking for Global Music Royalty # 23 and you have nominated these 3 artists:
Alban Skënderaj
He is the most succesful Albanian artist in the history of Global Music. Having been on the GM-stage 10 times, he can proudly call himself Global Music Champion for bringing the first trophy to Albania. In total he has reached the top 10 six times - which is a very strong achievement worthy of Global Music Royalty.
Rita Ora
Six participations in Global Music, four top 10 results and one Bronze Medal. An international star who was very close to representing UK at the Eurovision Song Contest but was refused at the very last minute. This did not stop her from becoming the international star, she is today. Originally from Kosovo she has achieved recognition as an international pop star through her collaborations in the UK music scene.
Sertab Erener
Another super star reaching a wider audience through the Eurovision Song Contest. She hasn't won the gold in Global Music, but she has so far taken part 10 times for Turkey and did win the first medal for her country with a silver medal. She also has a bronze medal on her mantle and still has faithful fanbase at home and abroad.
You decide who of these 3 artists will be named as our next Global Music Royalty!
Voting is done through the voting form for the final, so be sure to use the voting form here when voting. Only votes made this way will be counted!
