All roads led to the Accra International Conference Center last night to brace the biggest music event in Ghana.
The venue was crowded with celebrities like Majid Michel, Nadia Buari, Confidence Haugen and several music fans, to celebrate and honour our musicians.
The event started with a great performance from one of Ghana's music legends, Amakye Dede. We later saw splendid performances from the younger generation artistes like 4x4, Becca, Efyah, Eazzy, Ruff n Smooth, Doneo, Wande Coal, Jozi of south Africa, among many others.
One shocking moment of the night was when Obrafuor dedicated his award to Obuor and Okyeame Kwame. The collaboration between him and Guru, "Kasiebor" won them the "Collaboration of the year" award.
Many were those who criticised the award with the view that, the song did not even qualify for nomination this year. "Nominations ended last November and the song ( KASIEBOR) was released earlier this year. So how and why was it nominated?". That is the question many Ghanaian music fans seem to be asking. "I don't understand, how that is possible" said one music fan, when he was asked with the same question.
What is your view on this issue? Opinions are like noses, everybody is entitled to one.
On the whole, the event was successful. As Sarkodie won Artist of the Year,
Discovery of the year,
Hip hop/hiplife artist of the year,
Best Rapper of the year,
Album of the Year,
-Wutah won Highlife song of the year,
Reggae Song of the year and
P.V ( a member of the duo) took the Best Male Vocal performance award
-Becca's "Daa Ke Daa" won
Record of the year and she also walked away wit the Best Female Vocal Performance award.
-Most popular song of the year went to Bradez.
-Ayigbe Edem's "u dey craze" won him the Hip hop /hiplife song of the year award
-Highlife artist of the year went to Kofi B
-Afro-pop Song of the year award went to 4x4 and Wande Coal snatched the African artiste of the year.
The most awaited moment was the most prestigious award of the night, " ARTISTE OF THE YEAR", which went to Sarkodie, as friends and family joined him celebrate on stage.
The after-party was held at Afrodisiac night club, where the fun continued till day broke.
