Multiple Award-winning Reggae Dancehall artiste, Stonebwoy has won the ultimate award for the night – the Artiste of the Year award at the 25th Telecel Ghana Music Awards.
This makes it his second win of the award after he first picked it in 2015. The ‘Into the Future’ crooner contended the most prestigious award with Sarkodie, Black Sherif, Kuami Eugene, King Promise and Nacee for the year under review.
Stonebwoy’s exploit for the year under review has been remarkable as he grabbed five other awards at the 25th TGMA.
The superstar recently released 5th Dimension, his first studio collection in three years.
The Reggae/Dancehall artiste was the most decorated artiste for the night sending home the awards for the International Collaboration of the Year, Songwriter of the Year, Reggae Dancehall Artiste of the Year, Record of the Year and Album/EP of the Year.
While receiving the award Stonebwoy expressed gratitude to the Bhim fans and announced that he would embark on a tour with the award.
Stonebwoy shared the joyous moment with his friends and family on stage including his wife Dr Louisa Setakla and said he was lost for words.
“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 artists in the category for putting up a good fight and thanked his fans for their constant support.
However, before he walked off stage, Stonebwoy appealed to the organisers Charterhouse to announce the result of the 2019 Ghana Music Awards. The announcement was halted and eventually cancelled after a fight broke out between himself and Shatta Wale – this led to their suspension for a year.
