The Caribbean Music Awards (CMA) clarified recent controversies surrounding its newly introduced Caribbean R&B Artist of the Year award. The contention arose after fans and industry stakeholders questioned the award’s adjudication process during the August 28th, 2025 ceremony. In response, CMA stated that the award was based on fan votes, which favored Dexta Daps over Kranium. The organization acknowledged a mistake in using outdated documentation to create winner cards, causing confusion. Despite the turmoil, Dexta Daps remains the official winner, while Kranium declined to accept any award or participate in future events. CMA expressed regret and assured the public of implementing new safeguards to avoid such incidents. They also announced plans to introduce a Caribbean R&B Song of the Year category in 2026 to better represent the diversity of Caribbean music.
