The nominations for the 2025 Urban X Awards are out, and one name is buzzing with double the excitement: Dante Diggz. The powerhouse performer has officially been nominated for two of the night’s most coveted titles, Best Pro-Am Male Performer and the fan-favorite Mr. Good Stroke.
For Diggz, the recognition is a powerful validation of his dedication and grind in a competitive industry.
“It’s an amazing feeling to be nominated,” Diggz shared. “Hard work, along with support from my Red Bottom team and my fans, paid off.”
A Team Player with a ‘Larger’ Presence
This success isn’t just a solo victory. Diggz is a cornerstone of Red Bottom Productions, and the studio’s owner, Dante, couldn’t be prouder. He praised Diggz not just for his on-screen talent but for his indispensable role behind the scenes.
“Dante is a man who makes every scene he takes part in better,” the Red Bottom owner stated. “He has been a team player since the moment I met him, and his presence gets larger and larger. I mean that in every way possible.”
This sentiment highlights a key aspect of Diggz’s career: he’s not just a performer, he’s a presence who elevates the entire production. His nomination for Best Pro-Am Male Performer speaks to his versatility, while the nod for Mr. Good Stroke confirms what fans have known all along—his performance is top-tier.
Celebrating Excellence at the Urban X Awards
The Urban X Awards hold a special place in the industry calendar. For years, the event has focused on celebrating and honoring the incredible contributions of performers of color, making these nominations particularly meaningful. Landing a nomination here means you’re being recognized by an institution dedicated to diversity and excellence.
As soon as the news dropped, fans flooded social media to congratulate Diggz, with many on his X.com profile already promising to cast their votes. This groundswell of support is crucial, as fan voting plays a significant role in determining the winners.
What’s Next for Diggz?
With voting set to run from June 15 to August 1, the hype will only continue to build. All eyes will be on the Regent Theater in Los Angeles on August 17, when the winners will be crowned at the 2025 Urban X Awards ceremony.
For now, Diggz stands as a shining example of talent and teamwork, a performer who, as his boss puts it, truly “bears the Red Bottom Productions standard in all that he does.”
