“LETTER TO VGMA
“Dear VGMA,
“It is with much gratitude I write this letter, I also wish to Congratulate you for the touch of excellence you put up in regards of your annual Vodafone Ghana Music Awards scheme over the years.
“Ghana Music is what it is today because some of us in the creative industry sacrificed a lot of time, energy, sleepless nights, creativity in projecting our crafts to the international Communities.
“I have done productions for Musicians such as TIC,SAMINI,SARKODIE, STONEBWOY,BLAKK RASTA,AFRO MOSES,PRINCE BRIGHT, OKOMFO KWADEE,BEN BRAKO,KWAW KESE,OHEMAA MERCY,CINDY THOMPSON and many others who's works have won several awards.
“I wish to draw your attention on the fact that I have not received the due recognition under your Award scheme as far as Creativity is concern.
“At least a MERIT AWARD.
“I also request your good office to grant me 15 minutes of your stage time to enable me perform some of the instrumentals of my productions with KEYTAR. This I believe will help my DYSLEXIA AWARENESS CAMPAIGN.
