TGMA 2024: How celebrities reacted to Stonebwoy's 'Artiste of the Year' award

Reggae Dancehall artiste, Stonebwoy, stole the show at the 25th Vodafone Ghana Music Awards as he was crowned Artiste of the Year for the second time in his career.

He beat competition from King Promise, Kuami Eugene, Sarkodie, Black Sherif and Nacee.

Various celebrities in the country have taken to their social media platforms to congratulate the Dancehall artiste for this great feat, achieved through hard work and perseverance.

However, some have raised concerns about whether Stonebwoy truly deserved the award, especially considering that King Promise, his closest contender, was favoured by some industry players.

Among the celebrities who reacted to Stonebwoy's win are Afia Schwarzenegger, Bridget Otoo, Tic Tac, Serwaa Amihere, and others.

During the event, Stonebwoy clinched an impressive six awards in total, including Album of the Year, Reggae Dancehall Artiste of the Year, Songwriter of the Year, Collaboration of the Year, and the ultimate, Artiste of the Year.

You people are not serious one bit! I still believe so, because his song was global! But if they give it to Stonebwoy looking at the awards he’s picked tonight, nothing spoil!

I will still be eating. I won’t lose hair… I sincerely believe we must reward artistes whose songs… https://t.co/fUCVg7Y5iz
