The Telecel Ghana Music Awards 2024 edition has been a night of triumph for two of Ghana's leading artistes.

Stonebwoy and King Promise, both contenders for the prestigious 'Artiste of the Year' title, have each secured a win in significant categories.

Stonebwoy's collaboration with the legendary Angelique Kidjo, 'Manodzi,' earned him the 'Best International Collaboration of the Year' award.

The song, which fuses the vibrant energy of African rhythms with global sounds, has been celebrated for its cross-cultural appeal and the seamless synergy between the two artistes.

King Promise, on the other hand, has been pronounced winner of the 'Best Afropop Song of the Year' with his hit single 'Terminator.'

With these wins, Stonebwoy and King Promise have set the tone for the rest of the night, as anticipation builds for the announcement of 'Artiste of the Year.' Fans and industry insiders alike are eager to see if their early victories will translate into the ultimate honour of the evening.
