Celebrated international sound engineer and beat maker, Maxwell Asante Ansong, known on the international music scene as Mo Beatz, has been tipped by some industry players to win the Producer Of The Year Awards at the forthcoming Vodafone Ghana Music Awards (VGMA) slated for the Accra International Conference Centre (AICC) in May.
The sound engineer and beat maker, according to some industry players, deserves the award because of his track records and recognition on the international scene.
Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of Scratch Studio & Music Publishing, Kofi Amoakohene, who is currently working with Mo Beatz, told BEATWAVES in a chat that “Mo Beatz deserves the awards because he has done a lot for local artistes and he is still producing a lot of them. Because of his track record, most of the local artistes visit his studio every day for assistance.”
Whether he will win as he is competing in the same category with Bisa K'dei, Akwaboah Jnr, Beatz Dakay, Chapter Beatrs, E.L, Dr Ray and Kin Dee, Kofi Amoakohene mentioned that he believes Mo Beatz has a great chance of grabbing the award, adding, “Let's see how it goes.”
Mo Beatz is credited with a number of hit songs on the international music scene. He has also produced a number of songs for local artistes such as VVIP, Stonebwoy, M.anifest, SSUE and a host of others.
