Ghanaian artist Stonebwoy has acknowledged that despite his significant achievements in the music industry, he still has much more to accomplish. He expressed his optimism for a long career ahead, stating, “I am yet to work with Appietus in my career, so I have fifty more years to go. Nothing happen. If I am here to work with Appietus, you can just imagine.” This statement came as he honored music producers like Fredima, Mix Master Garzy, and Appietus during the Telecel Ghana Music Awards held on Saturday, July 13, 2024.
The ceremony, organized by Charterhouse Ghana, the producers of the annual Ghana Music Awards, gathered influential executives and stakeholders from Ghana’s creative industry. Attendees included record producers, representatives from copyright and music rights organizations, musicians, and creative entrepreneurs.
At the event, Stonebwoy was presented with his official TGMA plaques after delivering an outstanding performance. During his acceptance speech, he said, “I humbly just want to say thank you guys [industry] so much for supporting the Ghana Music Awards. This is the only one we have. For me, if I have to work harder 100 times and win what is deserved 100 times, I think it’s in the right way for Ghana music.”
