3 Music Awards announces nominees after comeback
Organisers of 3Music Awards have announced nominees for this year’s event in an atmosphere filled with pomp and pageantry.
The ceremony which took place at the Garage Lounge located at East Legon on Friday, August 9, brought together musicians, media, music lovers and some other industry players.
After a year’s break, organisers of 3 Music Awards recently announced the return of the scheme this September.
The scheme encountered some challenges leading to the break, however, with the right measures put in place, it is back.
The coveted Artiste of the Year will be a contest for heavyweights, Black Sherif, King Promise, Kuami Eugene, Medikal, Mr Drew, Nacee, Sarkodie and Stonebwoy.
The board, academy and general public will have a tough task selecting the Act of the Year which features a number of impressive artists including King Paluta.
The Gospel Artist of the Year award would have Diana Hamilton, Joe Mettle, Nacee, Perez Muzik and others.
The other awards on the night include Group of the Year, Digital Act of the Year and Song of the Year.
The main event to determine winners of all the 32 categories is set to take place at the new Palms Convention Centre at La Palm Beach Hotel on September 28
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.
