A new king is here! Stonebwoy is the 2024 Telecel Ghana Music Awards (TGMA) Artiste of the Year. He beat stiff competition from five others namely; Black Sherif, King Promise, Kuami Eugene, Nacee and Sarkodie to win the award.
In addition to Artiste of the Year, Stonebwoy won five other awards: Best International Collaboration, Best Reggae/Dancehall Artist, Songwriter of the Year, Record of the Year, and Best Dancehall Artiste.
This is Stonebwoy’s second TGMA Artiste of the Year award, his first being in 2015. He is the third artiste in history, besides rapper Sarkodie and the group VIP, to achieve this milestone.
Surrounded by friends and family, including his wife Dr. Louisa Satekla, Stonebwoy expressed his gratitude on stage.
“I just want to say thanks to the Most High God. Thank you mama wherever you are, thank you for showering your blessings upon your son. I wrote a long speech but I am lost for words,” the musician said.
Stonebwoy also appreciated the other artistes in the category for putting up a good fight and thanked his fans for their constant support.
Before leaving the stage, Stonebwoy appealed to the organisers of the Telecel Ghana Music Awards, Charterhouse, to announce the results of the 2019 Ghana Music Awards.
The announcement was halted and eventually cancelled after a fight broke out between himself and Shatta Wale, leading to their suspension for a year.
Stonebwoy believes he won the award that night and, if confirmed, he would become the only artiste in history to win it three times.
