"King Promise for 'Artiste Of The Year'.. who says No?"
The YouTuber's prediction comes several months ahead of the night when winners will be announced.
His prediction has started a heated debate, considering the several other candidates who fans have tipped as equally deserving of the prestigious Artiste of the Year award at the upcoming Ghana Music Awards.
YEN.com.gh talked to Yaw Boadu-Ayeboafoh to ascertain Kwadwo Sheldon's predictions. He said,
"Undoubtedly, he's one of the contenders for the Artiste of the Year award. But contrary to what many think, it won't be flawless, especially with Stonebwoy releasing an album. Following the category definition, Stonebwoy is more likely to have an edge over him."
Stonebwoy meets Shaggy, 10Tik, and other reggae stars at the Island Conference in Jamaica, peeps excited
