  • TGMA on Par with Grammys and BET – Stonebwoy

    TGMA on Par with Grammys and BET – Stonebwoy

    Award-winning reggae/dancehall artist Livingstone Etse Satekla, known as Stonebwoy, recently praised the Telecel Ghana Music Awards (TGMA), asserting that the event is on the same level as prestigious international awards like the Grammys and BET.

    Stonebwoy, who recently received the TGMA Artiste of the Year award, highlighted the importance of recognizing local achievements.

    In an interview with Berla Mundi on TV3, Stonebwoy shared his views on the TGMA’s role in supporting Ghanaian artists.

    “I am truly appreciative. No one could even notice that night. I had to take my medication during the event. The truth is, I hold a great deal of respect for the Ghana Music Awards, and it is evident in the effort I put into it because that is the Ghana Music Awards,” he said.

    The “Therapy” hitmaker added that while he aspires to win international awards like the Grammys and BET, local award shows also deserve appreciation and support. He noted that just as the TGMA is crucial in Ghana, these global awards are significant in their respective countries.

    “As much as we strive to transcend our national boundaries and reach the Grammys or the Latin Awards or the BETs, we must recognize that those awards are local to Americans. Therefore, it is crucial to cultivate our own local awards. Without the Ghana Music Awards, what would we have? I wouldn’t want to be left out. Even on days when I wasn’t performing, like last year, I attended and presented an award. I truly value it,” he expressed.

  • Sam George exposes the NSA, reveals Stonebwoy paid GH₵169,000 instead of GH₵ 70,000

    Sam George exposes the NSA, reveals Stonebwoy paid GH₵169,000 instead of GH₵ 70,000

    Ningo Prampram Member of Parliament Sam George claims that dancehall superstar Stonebwoy paid GH₵ 169,000 to reserve the Accra Sports Stadium for his Bhim Concert in December of last year.

    He asserts that the amount is less than the GH₵70,000 that the National Sports Authority (NSA) asserts the musician paid.

    During Peter Twumasi’s Public Accounts Committee appearance, Sam George questioned Twumasi, the Director-General of the National Sports Authority (NSA), about the GH₵ 70,000. Twumasi responded.

    Sam George was shown new information, though, which suggests Stonebwoy might have paid more than initially disclosed.

    After carefully examining Twumasi’s testimony before the Public Accounts Committee on February 5, 2024, the MP from Ningo-Prampram claimed to have learned of the discrepant figures.

    He added that Stonebwoy had not really paid the GH₵ 70,000 that had been made public, according to a source.

    Based on the records he possessed, Sam George asserted that Stonebwoy paid GH₵ 169,000 for the venue.

    Astonishing audiences at the private industry event, the renowned Ghanaian musician—dubbed the “biggest music export from Ghana”—debuted his most recent single, “Believe in Africa,” accompanied by his band and orchestra. In an effort to create a better and more prosperous future, the song is an anthem that calls on Africans to embrace their history, celebrate their diversity, and band together.

    Along with drawing from his back catalogue, Stonebwoy also performed some timeless hits and meaningful tunes, including the Angelique Kidjo-assisted “Manodji” from his 5th Dimension album, as well as 2014’s “Run Go,” “Everlasting,” and “Into the Future.”

    H.E. Nana Akuffo Addo, the First Lady of Ghana, presided over the 2024 edition of the Africa Prosperity Champions Awards and Presidential Gala Dinner, which took place at the Kempinski Hotel Gold Coast City in Accra.

    The former head of state of Ghana, Rebecca Akufo-Addo; the president of the Co-operative Republic of Guyana; Mohammed Irfaan Ali; the president of the Republic of Togo; the president of Senegal; H.E. Macky Sall; and the president of Ethiopia, Sahle-Worķ Zewde, are just a few of the notable figures in the group.
