“Stonebwoy For 25th TGMA Artiste Of The Year”: MC Portfolio Presents Convincing Bid, Fans React

  • The 25th Telecel Ghana Music Awards, set to happen on June 1, has sparked several showbiz conversations online
  • Numerous industry insiders have weighed in on the keenly contested Artiste of the Year category with Stonebwoy and King Promise
  • Kumasi-based media personality MC Portfolio has shared a submission online declaring Stonebwoy as the most likely artiste to win the category

Ghanaian musician Stonebwoy emerged as the most nominated artiste at this year's Telecel Ghana Music Awards, which will be held on June 1.

However, the musician still faces stiff competition from other well-deserving contenders, including King Promise, who has had an impressive year under review.

While many industry insiders have deemed the category a walk in the park for King Promise, MC Portfolio has presented a submission that has increased the hopes of many Ghanaian fans rallying behind Stonebwoy.

MC Portfolio backs Stonebwoy

According to MC Portfolio, Stonebwoy and King Promise equally tick many of the boxes for consideration for the Artiste of the Year category.

However, Stonebwoy's 5th Dimension album and his flagship Bhim Concert at the 40k-capacity Accra Sports Stadium place him above King Promise.

Despite King Promise scoring top hits, including Terminator, the media personality referenced Stonebwoy having the biggest Amapiano song in 2023 and the relevance of his collaborations, which earned artists like Kidi nominations in the TGMA scheme, as the deciding factors for the category.

The radio personality bashed industry personalities who had reduced the Artiste of the Year debate to choosing King Promise because Stonebwoy had won the category before.

"Stonebwoy outdid himself and performed more than any other artiste. We shouldn't give out the award based on sympathy lines," MC Portfolio added.
