Ghanaian musician Amerado has waded into the conversation about who wins Artiste of the Year at the 2025 Telecel Ghana Music Awards.
The ‘Kwaku Ananse’ hitmaker shared a post of his activities in the year 2024 with the caption: “Amerado in 2024, Artiste Of The Year conversation without Amerado under the 2024 year of Review is an exposure of ignorance and consequently brutal to the industry and upcoming ones.”
The issue of who wins Artiste of the Year has come up ahead of the call for nominations for the 2025 Telecel Ghana Music Awards.
Other artistes whose names have been mentioned in the debate are King Paluta, King Promise, Stonebwoy, Team Eternity Ghana, DopeNation, Kofi Kinaata, and Fameye.
According to the Telecel Ghana Music Awards definition, “The Artiste of the Year is the Artiste(s) adjudged by the Academy, Board and the General Public as the artiste with the highest audience appeal and popularity in the year under review. The artiste(s) must have released a hit single/EP/album and must be one of the artistes with the highest nominations in the year under review.”
Barring any changes to the category definition by the TGMA Board, nomination for the Artiste of the Year category for this year’s awards will be premised on the above-stated criteria.
