The MAMA Awards was first held in 1999 under the name Mnet Music Video Festival. The event eventually evolved into the well-known Mnet Asian Music Awards in 2009, “[announcing] the arrival of a music awards celebration dedicated to Asia.”
K-Pop artistry and fandom are channeled as a force for good guided by a message of shared hope and empowerment. Boldness, passion, and audacious dreams : the MAMA Awards is an unequaled opportunity to experience the quintessential values of K-Pop.
— MAMA Awards
The 2022 MAMA Awards will take place in Japan on November 29-30, so with the awards show happening in a month, netizens are already speculating about who will take home the grand prizes (daesangs). Notably, even though netizens can use the MAMA Awards‘ criteria to speculate about who will take the awards, the judging panel can greatly influence the results.
Here is the current outlook.
Artist of the Year
The “Artist of the Year” daesang is decided by 20% digital sales in Korea, 10% digital sales globally, 30% physical sales, and 40% from the judge’s panel.
Based on these metrics and without the inclusion of the judge’s 40%, IVE is the predicted winner for “Artist of the Year.”
However, notably, Lim Young Woong has the highest digital sales in Korea, BTS has the highest digital sales globally, and Stray Kids has the highest physical sales.
Song of the Year
The “Song of the Year” daesang is decided by 40% digital sales in Korea, 20% digital sales globally, and 40% from the judge’s panel.
Based on these metrics and without the inclusion of the judge’s 40%, IVE’s hit-song “LOVE DIVE” is the predicted winner for “Song of the Year.”
Although IVE’s “LOVE DIVE” had the highest digital sales in Korea, BLACKPINK‘s “Pink Venom” notably had the highest digital sales globally.
Album of the Year
The “Album of the Year” daesang is decided by 60% physical album sales and 40% from the judge’s panel.
Based on the metrics for physical album sales and without the inclusion of the judge’s 40%, BTS’s anthology album PROOF is predicted to win “Album of the Year.”
