Every W.A.M. Award submission is reviewed by an independent panel drawn from across the music industry — producers, engineers, recording artists, radio programmers, and music journalists associated with BWH Music Group and its review platforms.
Entries are judged on songwriting, production quality, performance, and originality. Within each category, judges award Bronze, Silver, and Gold honors, and a single Grand Prize Winner is selected from across all genres to receive a full worldwide PR campaign.
Because the W.A.M. Awards exist to champion independent music, judging is focused entirely on the artistry of the work — not on label backing, budget, or following.
