On May 25, 2011, music channel TRACE Urban was voted “Coolest TV Channel” and “Coolest Music Channel” for the second consecutive year by the youth of South Africa in the Sunday Times Generation Next 2011 Survey in Johannesburg.
The survey was carried out in February and March 2011 among 7,242 South African youths, aged 8 to 22, in the urban and peri-urban environments of six provinces. HDI Youth Marketeers conducted the research analysis in conjunction with academic validation partner Monash South Africa, and statistician Arien Strasheim.
“I am thrilled. 4 Awards in 2 years! These Awards mean a lot to us because they come directly from our audience. They acknowledge the very special relationship built over the years between TRACE and South African youths. Our teams in South Africa and the rest of the world will continue to do their best to provide great music and editorial content that entertains and inspires young South Africans”, said Olivier Laouchez, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of TRACE.
Thank you to all our viewers for voting for TRACE Urban!
