Music entrepreneur advises TGMA to create Female Artist of the Year, peeps react: “Women empowerment”

• Ghanaian music entrepreneur Kwame Baah advised the TGMA organisers to create the Female Artiste of the Year Award category
• He stated that this would go a long way in creating a positive impact on the music industry
• Many people agreed with him, while others stated that it was not needed and advised the females to work as hard as the men

Ghanaian music entrepreneur Kwame Baah has called on the Ghana Music Awards, the organisers of the prestigious Telecel Ghana Music Awards, to introduce the Female Artiste of the Year Award category.

Music entrepreneur wrote a plea to TGMA

Taking to his Facebook page, Kwame Baah advised TGMA to introduce the Female Artist of the Year category because it would positively impact the music industry.

This comes after many male musicians dominated the category, and, in recent times, only male artists have swept the coveted award.

“TGMA should introduce “Female Artiste of the Year”. It will go a long way to affect our industry positively,” Kwame Baah wrote on Facebook.

Since Gospel singer Diana Hamilton beat circular musicians KiDi, Adina, and Kuami Eugene to win it in 2021, only male artists have secured the award after that.

Singer KiDi won it in 2022, Black Sherif in 2023, and dancehall musician Stonebwoy, who won it in 2024, are currently the title holders.

Below is the post by Kwame Baah to TGMA about creating the Female Artiste of the Year Award category.

Reactions to the words of Kwame Baah

Many people sided with Kwame Baah on TGMA, creating the category to favour female artists in the industry and give them the chance to bag the award.

Others who disagreed said that female musicians need to work as hard as men to secure the award.

Below are the diverse opinions:

I thought we lived in a feminist world. Let them compete. After all, they can do what men do.

Adjowa Addo-Yobo

I’m surprised there is no category like that… all these years.

Nana Yaw Kubiti

Naa, the artist of the year goes to either female or male. Okay, it’s all about your hard work. Where were you when Ebony won the Artist of the Year?
