For your information, the late Dancehall diva, Ebony Reigns is currently holding the mantle as the ‘Artist of the Year’ after winning it in 2018 ─ even though the 2019 Vodafone Ghana Music Awards has been organised.
This is so because Charterhouse, the organisers of the Ghana Music Awards could not announce the ‘Artiste of the Year’ for 2019 due to Stonebwoy and Shatta Wale’s bizarre incident on the night.
Member of Parliament for Ningo-Prampram Constituency, Sam Dzata George commenting on the Stonebwoy-Shatta Wale fracas at the 2019 Vodafone Ghana Music Awards which could have led to stampede resulting in the death of thousands of music lovers on Saturday, May 18, 2019, has hailed Stonebwoy for defending himself with a gun on stage.
Sam George’s comment on his Facebook page hailing Stonebwoy for standing up to bullies (Shatta Wale and his SM gang) by pulling a gun on the stage is really shocking ─ this should never come from a Lawmaker at this crucial moment.
Ghanaians never paid attention to rapper Edem when he revealed in November 2018 that some Ghanaian musicians carry guns to events because of ‘beefs’.
Edem in an interview on Hitz FM in November 2018 indirectly predicted Stonebwoy’s gun pulling during the 20th edition of the Ghana Music Awards which was held on Saturday, May 18, 2019.
It is believed that behind every successful man there is a woman but it seems rapper Medikal holds a different view looking at how Fella Makafui’s name was never mentioned in his acceptance speeches during the 2019 Vodafone Ghana Music Awards on Saturday, May 18, 2019.
Medikal on all the two occasions he climbed the stage to receive his awards gave some shoutouts to his fans, parents and the people that matter in his life but there was one name he never mentioned and that’s his lover, Fella Makafui.
Just as he did at the just-ended, 3Music Awards where he swept almost all the awards in the various categories in which he was nominated, Shatta Wale has assured his fans to calm their nerves because he has another surprise for them.
Sadly for him, Ghanaians have been mocking him for not being able to praise himself with an international award, not even a BET nomination since he started his musical career.
Ahead of the 2019 Vodafone Ghana Music Awards, Rosemond Brown aka Akuapem Poloo wanting to be in the headlines before the main event on Saturday, May 18, 2019, at the Accra International Conference, has begged an Instagram blogger to insult her.
In the audio posted on the Instagram page of ThoseCalledCelebs, Akuapem Poloo was heard begging for insults to be rained on her in the name of trending and making headlines.
Rosemond Brown aka Akuapem Poloo who became popular after the 2018 Vodafone Ghana Music Awards (VGMA) says she is shocked that she wore that village outfit that exposed her ‘melons’ to the event.
Akuapem Poloo whose level has changed as a result of the attention given to her by the media posted a throwback photo of herself during the VGMA 2018 and captioned it; “I still don’t get it, did I really take this to VGMA last year?eeeiiii”.🙉🙉🙉
Broadcaster and host of Starr FM’s ‘Starr Drive’, Kofi Okyere Darko popularly known as KOD has been confirmed by Charterhouse as the host for the 20th edition of the Vodafone Ghana Music Awards slated for Saturday, May 18, 2019, at the Accra International Conference Centre (AICC).
Excited KOD in an interview on Starr FM said;
The 20th Edition of the Vodafone Ghana Music Awards (VGMA) comes off Saturday, May 18, 2019, at the Accra International Conference Centre (AICC) and one of the biggest accolades on the night is the “Artiste of the Decade” ─ that’s the artiste who has been consistent and relevant for the past 10 years.
The nominees in the category “Artiste of the Decade” are Sarkodie, Samini, Shatta Wale, Stonebwoy, R2Bees, Becca, Efya, Naace, Joe Mettle and one other musician.
All events and preparations are set for the upcoming 20th-anniversary edition of the Vodafone Ghana Music Awards.
The mega event kicks off this weekend with the first-ever VGMA Experience concert, to be held at the Independence Square in Accra.
This year’s Vodafone Ghana Music Awards night (VGMA) will be a night to remember in the history of the Ghanaian entertainment industry because of how well prepared Ghanaian musicians are.
One of the celebrities who will make the night remarkable is the ‘CCTV’ hitmaker, Gregory Bortey Newman, popularly known by his name, King Promise.
The build-up to the 2019 Vodafone Ghana Music Awards is on and as usual most of the nominees are campaigning and urging their fans on their social media platforms to vote massively for them to win big at the yet-to-be-held awards ceremony.
In light of the above, Tamale-based rapper, Maccasio in an interview on TV disclosed that his 69 fans army are working hard and voting to make sure that he beats Shatta Wale, Stonebwoy and Samini to win “Reggae Dancehall Song of the Year” award.
Rapper Yaa Pono during his performance at the 2019 Vodafone Ghana Music Awards’ Nominees Jam out of anger knocked two of his fans for apparently touching his balls.
The “Obia Wo Ne Master” hitmaker came on the stage on the shoulders of fans who mobbed him after his name was mentioned as the next performer.
Controversial Dancehall artiste, Shatta Wale who lambasted organisers of Vodafone Ghana Music Awards, Charterhouse after Dancehall Diva Kaaki won “Reggae Dancehall song of the Year” in 2013 is now excited and recording videos on social media to celebrate the 8 awards he won at 2019 3Music Awards.
Shatta Wale in a tweet in 2014, stated clearly that he doesn’t need awards because he is rich with cars and houses ─Shatta Wale even recorded a diss song directed at Charterhouse for not gifting him “Reggae Dancehall song of the Year” in 2013.
Africa’s most decorated rapper, Sarkodie has taken to his official Facebook page and flaunted his 21 VGMA plaques with the aim of motivating and thanking his loyal fans who made it possible for him to achieve this enviable feat.
According to Sarkodie, it’s not to show off his VGMA plaques but to appreciate his fans for their support, dedication and loyalty throughout his musical journey.
