The entries which opened on Monday, January 1 will close on January 31, 2024.
This year marks the fifth anniversary and the annual awards ceremony has been a platform to throw spotlight and celebrate Ghanaian musicians and their works in the diaspora, particularly in the US, in the year under review.
Among the winners for last year’s event were Black Sherif, Camidoh, Piesie Esther and Samini.
This year, a number of artistes will be awarded in various categories including Discovery Act of the Year, Rapper of the Year, Female Artist of the Year, Male Artist of the Year, and Best Afropop Artist.
The others are Best Gospel Song of the Year, Gospel Artist of the Year, Best Male Vocalist of the Year and Female Vocalist of the Year.
In a chat with Graphic Showbiz, CEO of Don’s Music Production, Dennis Boafo popularly known as Don D said the awards scheme intends to change the Ghanaian narrative about award ceremonies.
“We want to infuse our culture and music in our ceremonies. We have always been only projecting the music component of our culture but it is time to fully project our culture on these bigger stages for the world to learn and appreciate what we have,” he said.
