This year’s edition of the Ghana Music Awards UK will come off on the 6th October 2018 at the N22 6DS-Gaunmont Palace, London.
The 2018 Ghana Music Awards UK see the late Ebony Reigns who won the Best New Artiste last year make an entry into the Artiste of the year category. She also had the most nominations at this year’s scheme.
Shatta Wale who won the Artiste of the year at the 2017 Ghana Music Awards UK made an entry again in the artiste of the year category and would be competing against the likes of late Ebony Reigns, Stonebwoy, Kidi, King Promise, Kuami Eugene and Gospel musician, Patience Nyarko.
The categories look very competitive we must say. Kwesi Arthur who was nominated at this year’s BET Awards but lost out also made a strong appearance in the Best Rapper Category competing against the boss Sarkodie and the likes of Yaa Pono, Strongman, Flowking Stone, Shaker and Zylofon’s artiste Obibini.
We just can’t wait to see who would emerge a winner in each category looking at the list of nominees for the 2018 Ghana Music Awards UK.
