As the discussion surrounding the potential winner of the 2024 Telecel Ghana Music Awards (TGMA) Artiste of the Year intensifies, radio personality Halifax Ansah-Addo has shared his perspective.
During the latest episode of United Showbiz, Halifax expressed that he had always believed Stonebwoy would win the award until he discovered King Promise’s remarkable contributions during the year in review. Halifax now believes that King Promise is more deserving of the accolade.
Halifax revealed that he had underestimated King Promise’s hard work until he thoroughly examined his achievements for the year.
Consequently, Halifax emphasized that King Promise’s efforts had been largely overlooked until recently. He suggested that the artist should have been more proactive in engaging with the Ghanaian market.
“My bet was on Stonebwoy; he’s worked, and he deserves it. His team has also found a nice way of pushing him and his work on us. You get to know what he’s doing, whether you like it or not.
“Until tonight, I didn’t know King Promise had worked. When they gave me King Promise’s repertoire, I was shocked, and I started to revise my notes. I would not be surprised if King Promise gets it.
“I think going forward, people like King Promise should be more deliberate about getting the Ghanaian market involved in the things he does.
“He is doing so, but it is rather late. I’m not sure they can use this last week to catch up. Unlike Stonebwoy, who over the years has been vocal about his activities,” Halifax said during the programme anchored by regular host MzGee.
This year’s Artiste of the Year category, which is the topmost award at the TGMAs, has artistes like King Promise, Stonebwoy, Black Sherif, Nacee, and Sarkodie in contention for the accolade.
