The 25th Telecel Ghana Music Awards(TGMA), held on June 1, 2024, at the Grand Arena in Accra, was a night full of excitement and surprises as artists and industry figures were honored for their achievements over the past year. The event, hosted by Naa Ashorkor and Chris Attoh, featured numerous categories and awards, with memorable performances to entertain the guests.
BET winner Stonebwoy delivered a standout performance at the ceremony. Despite King Promise being touted as a strong contender, some felt he was unfairly overlooked for certain awards.
