Tap Tap Send to headline GMA-USA 2022
Organisers of Ghana Music Awards-USA have announced money sending vendor platform, Tap Tap Send as its headline sponsor of this year’s event.
Last year the scheme secured a deal with Angel Group of Companies, producers of Adonko products and Next Level Energy Drinks.
In an interview with the Chief Executive Officer (CEO), Dennis Boafo, also known as Don D in the entertainment circles, he said “we are proud of ourselves and very happy to know that companies see our effort towards promoting the Ghanaian Culture, Heritage and Music in the diaspora. I can say on authority that, through GMA-USA last year, Adonko gained prominence in America.”
Tap Tap Send is a no-fee money sending vendor based in some European countries, Asia and America. It is an app based platform that allows one to send money to family and friends in Africa.
According to him, he strongly believes their sponsorship this year will help the scheme change the narrative when it comes to awards in the diaspora.
“We need companies like this to invest in Ghanaian-owned businesses in the diaspora in order to project and promote our culture and heritage to the whole world,” he said.
This Year’s GMA-USA Nominees Announcement will come off at The Grand Roosevelt Ballroom on 2 Hudson Street, Yonkers, New York on April 16,2022.
The event will see Ghanaian artistes in the diaspora and others from Ghana thrill patrons in a glamorous and classy style.
The main event is slated for August 20, 2022, at a venue, which would be announced during the Nominees Announcement
Kwame Nsiah Apau, widely known as Okyeame Kwame, and the Rap Dacta, celebrated his 50th birthday with the release of a rhythmic reggae tune titled “Clap.”
The song shines a spotlight on applauding those making remarkable contributions to society and encourages people to celebrate the successes of their friends and family.
Just a week after its release, “Clap” has garnered widespread positive reactions from influencers across Ghana, Jamaica, America, South Africa, and other parts of the world.
In one of the reaction videos shared by Okyeame Kwame, renowned entrepreneur and philanthropist Richard Nii Armah Quaye, aka RNAQ, expressed his admiration, saying, “Love this song and the lyrics. I want to support its promotion with GHC 100,000. Well done.”
Okyeame Kwame, who had previously promised to build a Paediatric Emergency Ward at Manhyia Hospital in Kumasi before his birthday, would certainly benefit from this generous support for such a meaningful project.
His 50th birthday celebration was a successful all-white event held at +233 Pub and Grill, featuring amazing performances that added to the memorable occasion.
