Diana Hamilton sets record

By her win, Hamilton has become the second-ever gospel singer to win the ultimate in the 22-year history of the awards. Joe Mettle won in 2017.

She is also the second-ever female artiste to emerge as the Artiste of the Year at the VGMA. The first was Ebony Reigns who won in 2018.

Considering that Ebony won the Artiste of the Year posthumously, Hamilton has become the first woman alive to receive the award.
