Stonebwoy deserves TGMA best male vocalist nomination - Burniton Music Group
The Head of Public Relations for Burniton Music Group (BMG), Vida Adutwumwaa Boateng says the organisers of Telecel Ghana Music Awards (TGMAs) should have nominated reigning TGMA Artiste of the Year, Stonebwoy for best male vocalist award.
This year’s Best Male Vocalist category has Kofi Nuel, Emmanueel Juddah, MOG Music, Ayisi and Joe Mettle as nominees.
In an interview with Graphic Showbiz, Ms Boateng said she was very surprised at how the board of TGMA continuously ignored Stonebwoy for the best male vocal performance award when the latter has shown his vocal prowess over the years.
“I would have loved for Stonebwoy to also make it to the male vocal performance category as well. For many years, the scheme has overlooked Stonebwoy's vocal power, his vocal dexterity is unmatched and that show itself on every song on his album and features he makes for other artistes.
“He has one of the unique vocal tones and melodies that sets him apart from other artistes and it's about time that that unique sound of his voice is appreciated. Songs like lovely weather, your body etc. have distinct vocal ranges that could settle nicely in that male vocal performance category.
Virtually ticking all the category’s boxes as well as habouring a strong conviction of making history as the first artiste to win the ultimate Telecel Ghana Music Awards (TGMAs) Artiste of the Year (AOTY) award back to back, Dancehall artiste Stonebwoy has declared he has no challenger in this year’s race.

Stonebwoy, the reigning TGMA Artiste of the Year believes it is a done deal for him although he is vying for the TGMA topmost prize again this year against strong contenders including King Promise, Black Sherif, Kweku Smoke, Joe Mettle, King Paluta and Team Eternity Ghana.
