Ghanaian artiste, Kuami Eugene has said that the Ghana music industry is not as equitable as the public perceives.

He maintained that some artistes resort to any means necessary, whether positive or negative, to realize their ambitions and achieve their goals.

“The music industry no be how the fans dey see am. It’s a bloody game now. People will do anything, pull any string for validation. Ay3 tan!!!!!” he wrote on X.

Eugene’s comments came after the conclusion of the 25th Telecel Ghana Music Awards.

While the intent of his statement is unclear, some netizens speculate that his competitor, Stonebwoy, winning the Artiste of the Year award might have prompted his comment.

Meanwhile, Eugene won two awards at the 2024 TGMA. He won the Best Highlife Artiste and Best Music Video of the Year.

The TGMA was held at the Grand Arena of the Accra International Conference Centre on Saturday, June 1, 2024, where musicians were awarded for their works over the past year.

Media personality, Ola Michael has called on the Ghana Police Service to ensure that fairness prevails in its investigations about the accident involving actor, Kwadwo Nkansah, known as LilWin, that resulted in the death of three-year-old boy, Tawiah Ampomah.

The pundit urged Ghanaians to desist from passing judgment on the issue and wait for the police to conclude their investigations and present their findings.

He asserted that despite LilWin’s personality in the country as a renowned actor, the law must deal with him ruthlessly if he is found culpable of being at fault with the accident.

“Listening to the deceased’s father, he said his son was thrown to the front seat when the crash happened. We all know that if the child was not using a seat belt while sitting at the back, this would occur… I think we should be measured in our criticisms and exercise patience for the police to investigate the case and identify who caused it.

“However, if they find out that it’s LilWin’s fault, the law should deal wi
th him appropriately, there should not be any favoritism. Regardless of his personality. The same way the law should deal with the deceased boy’s father if he is found culpable,” he told MzGee during the United Showbiz programme aired on UTV.

LilWin’s car accident occurred on May 25, 2024.

The collision occurred in front of Grace Baptist Church in Amakom, Kumasi, where LilWin’s Benz and another vehicle crashed head-on, resulting in injuries to him and two others.

All injured parties, including LilWin, were taken to the Komfo Anokye Teaching Hospital’s Accident and Emergency Unit.

Despite his injuries, LilWin attended the premiere of his new movie, “A Country Called Ghana,” at the KNUST CCB Auditorium later that day.

Meanwhile, LilWin’s management has pledged support to the bereaved family following the child’s passing.

Dancehall artiste, Stonebwoy has called on the organizers of the Ghana Music Awards to officially announce him as the winner of the 2019 VGMA Artiste of the Year.

It can be recalled that in 2019, the much-anticipated title was withheld by the organizers of the VGMAs following a fracas involving Stonebwoy and rival Dancehall artiste Shatta Wale.

Stonebwoy had been announced as Dancehall Artiste of the Year when Shatta Wale stormed the stage with his entourage, engaging in a tussle with Stonebwoy’s entourage, which resulted in Stonebwoy brandishing a gun.

The two artistes were subsequently barred from the awards scheme, and the category was never announced.

Fast forward to 2024, Stonebwoy, who was announced as the 2024 Telecel Ghana Music Awards Artiste of the Year, took to the stage to claim that he was the winner of the Artiste of the Year category for 2019.

“I won the Ghana Music Artiste of the Year in 2015. I won it a
gain in 2019, but we all saw what happened.

“So, I just want to plead with Charterhouse, as honourable as they are, to make sure that they announce the winner, which I’m confident was Stonebwoy for 2019, and then again in 2024,” he said.
