AfghanMP3.com editor’s note:
Though better than last year’s show… like most of you, we felt that some of the awards given in certain categories were biased simply because certain artists have videos and program deals with Ariana Television Network.
No disrespect to Tawab Arash and Jawid Sharif – they’re both great artists, but by awarding Bia Janam and Shah-e Mardaan as Best Song and Best Patriotic Song of the year respectively, is ATN telling us that they are better than Latif Nangarhari’s Afghanistan or Farhad Darya’s Atan? Mozhdah’s Dokhtar-e Afghan for Best Light Song? You kidding me!
We are witnessing small but positive signs of Afghan music industry picking itself up through the production of better music and videos as well as tv programs… let’s hope that people in charge of such award and tv shows do justice by selecting and awarding the appropriate winners instead of playing favors or the usual biased politics.
Some fundemental changes are necessary, both by TV stations and our artists, if we want to see our music industry succeed in the right direction.

Dear Reader,
Please please please, Take Vali out of the list. He is not a singer and irani shit singer. try to award someone who is really singer like Farhad darya and others in list
If you awarded Vali, this is meaning that you people also not know music and this is dishonesty with the singers.
Regards,
Rafi
The problem is that, “BIA JANEM” is a copy song and by awarding a copy song, ATN is encouraging the artist to go for copy songs.
Fardin Faryad didn’t participate in this Award ceremony even he got requests multiple times, for sure his new CD gul-e naaz is better than Jawid Sharif’s CD which is full of copy songs.
Participating in these Award ceremonies is very early for great artists, because now as there is corruption in Afghan government there is also in TVs. Things go according to the will of the TV directors not the people. You might say, well the people voted for the BESTS! well yeah! it was an online voting, only people who had and knew computer and internet could participate, not the whole population, so to speak from statistics point of view: this Award is totally Bias.
Wishing for the good in the future.
Look rafi wat u said was not good,if we don’t support singers like valy then we will have no singers like farhad d n be encouraging to them,be proud of them bro.
By da way congrats Valy jan!

i think atn awards 2008 was a big fraud the best male artist should be given to farhad darya cause he released two albums haaa and yahoo and his songs were amazing specially mesazamat song this time he is the male artist of the year but im a little disappoint with other award categories winners best ghazal artist r u sure its najim nawabi?
salam ba hama taqdim mekonam
To Mastana Tvs comment!
ARE YOU SERIOUSLY COMPARING FARDIN FARYAD TO JAWID SHARIF ???
Fardin Faryad is a good singer i like him i always listen to his songs but hes not better than Jawid Sharif, there was NO copy in Kankaash CD of Jawid Sharif it was by far the best album of the year! he deserved it, Gule Naaz was good too but not better than Kankaash!
TO Afghanmp3 editor, YES Bia janam shouldntv been best song it shouldve been Yari jani Labakait my opinion but Shahe Mardan deserved best patriotic Award !
I think there should have been an award for VALY’s Producer for making him sound good; you know with all that Studio Magic that was put into effect in order for us to even be able to listen to his off note, off tune (besur) singing. lol
Shafiq Mureed dega nominate nabood aga ne tamame award ha naseeb ou jenab meshod!!!!
i am nijat masoud i love so much my country people i want to see the meleatan in my country plz show for me
i think every one is perfect but not Muzhdah
she is prostitute in the name of afghan
these type of shit people ride our country out of islamic values and afghani culture.
how ever im not too religious to be against music and enjoy, but im against such dirty people who are a big shame for our culture and values.
a simple example is, she started to sing in english instead of native language, it means she is perfect to be a western girl than using afghan name.
and receiving afghan award.
The biggest problem with us Afghans is that we ourselves have no idea of what art is. Art cannot be sold. Its value is decided by the buyer or buyers. What Afghan people are doing is selling music. Most Afghans singers are market singers. They want to make money out music. You can’t do that.
In order to be a good musician you have to first master the art of music. This is not easy. You need to understand music and its language. Once you have achieved that then you should produce original music with proper instruments.
Most Afghan singers of today have not taken proper music lessons for the sake of learning the art. They have taken lessons just to understand the basics of the art. Then they produce music with artificial simulations using a keyboard.
There is a reason why Ahmad Zahir was Ahmad Zahir. This is reason why Farhad Darya is Farhad Darya. They have understood the art of music and know how to produce good music.
I hope that our young generation appreciate the art of music and not just want dance beats. Most of our artist are producing dance music nothing else. I guess this the message that our youngsters are sending. This is the Afghan music market: dance, nothing else.
Salaam To Sweet Afghans,
It was all great th have such programmes to support Afghan singiers and musicain
Farhad Darya is alweys namder 1,Farhad youre a Daimou tand,We like you.
Salaam to every1, I liked ATN’s award show, waz very well organized with high standards so congratz to ATN team n Bayat fam. However, I do feel that mozhda is not ready to win an award simply cuz she is not ready… Overall, good performances by our Afghan singerz… At the end, I hve a suggestion to Afghan Vitual website Team, Plz remove Shabnum sorya’s copy song from list of 2009 best songs… simply cuz it’s a copy song n she is Not Afghan.. u guyz need to recognize this!!
Salam, to all afghan brothers.
and ifany one know how i can watch this 4th annual awards???????

Hey Rafi,
what makes you to say Valy is Irani? He’s accent? That means you are so silly that don’t know that Afghanistan is a diversified nation and western part of Afghanistan speak Herati or somewhat Irani accents. But, doesn’t make them Irani. Secondly, why you have to point as Irani..You and your family worship Indian culture and movies. Then, I guess Iran has lots of close culture to us then India.
Valy has donated 2.5 million dollars to Afghanistan Hospitals, what the hell have you done? Don’t judge someone on their language or styles. Because that was not the point. The point was content of his song and art. Whatever he is, he has the support of people. On You Tube his vidoes crossed all countries in the region. People from all over the world watch his vidoes.
No offense but you have got to be kidding to give the Best Song to Mozhdah? Unfortunately, she can not sing.. her voice is low that it is totally lost with the music.
where can you watch arina tv i mean i go to afghanistan live tv but it doesnt work for me and my dad sdoesnt like us watching dulhan becasue he thinks it too stupid
It is good but not to the extent that should be praised
to revive all mails new coming ups on my email address. every daily .
Valy sucks!Farhad Darya is the best!
Dear all;
Its really good that the ATN motivates the Afghan Singers infact it is quite appreciable, but as an Afghan culture we should always select the true, literate and real Afghan singers like farhad Darya and many more… to be nomenated.
and Valy Who the hell is he? is he really a singer?Does he really deserve to be awarded as an Afghan singer?? still it is not clear where he is really from? and as an proudful Afghan we should NOT let other people to mixed up our pure custome and cultures with the nieghbour countries such as Iran, Tajikistan and so on…
Regards
Fahima
All the afghans are the best stop arguing people just calm down. Make your future to be the best of the best then you could make your own productions to make good songs and however you wanted it to. Yasmin Durrani
VALY IS THE BEST……
