A true sensation was the election of Jimmy O'Monga (Omonga). The singer had a huge following in Brussels of mainly female fans. To them Jimmy is the cutest thing that ever came from Kinshasa, Congo.

Due to the release of just two of his songs on a sampler, released during the Womex International Music Fair in Sevilla, his beautiful modern balads were heard over Europe and the USA and certain caused him his election as the Best Newcomer in World Music 2008.

First I have to congratulate UPC for transmitting the Award Ceremony to the Amsterdam A1 channel and the Amsterdam TV Foundation Salto for providing the live-stream of the show, so the event could be seen live in over 200 countries.

When the drumroll sounded for Best Europe CD with 6772 voters, it was pure sensation that Taraf de Haïdouks beated with little as 6 votes Manu Chao and only 10 votes Shantel's Disko partizani.
