Celebrating Triumph: Ski Aggu's Three "1Live-Krone" Wins
Breaking records and making history, no artist had ever captured three awards in one evening at the "1Live-Krone" ceremony. This year, that record went to Ski Aggu, the ambitious musician in his iconic astronaut attire. After securing the 'Best Newcomer' title, thanks to WDR wave listeners, his conquest didn't stop there. He shared the spotlight with 01099 in the 'Hip-hop Hit' category for "Anders," and then triumphantly took home the 'Best Song' crown with the party anthem "Friesenjung," which he performed alongside Otto Waalkes and Joost to ignite the evening.
