We have the full list of nominees for Ghana DJ Awards 2018
It was a festival of local and international stars and a fabulous set design on Friday, April 6, as Joy Prime beamed, live from their studios, the official nominees’ announcement ceremony for the 2018 Ghana DJ Awards to millions of music fans across the African continent.
Dubbed ‘The Chosen’, the live TV event which kicked off at 2:30pm was graced top celebrities including iconic Nigerian lady DJ Cuppy, US-based International music consultant Rab Bakari, top Ghanaian actor Prince David Osei, Kuami Eugene, KiDi, Feli Nuna, Akoo Nana, amongst other top celebrities.
DJ Mpesempese set the event rolling with amazing skills on the Turntables, after which the faces of Hot Pics TV Show, Barikisu, Emman and Ghana DJ Awards boss, Merqury Quaye commissioned the announcement of nominees.
As tension, anxiety and anticipation engulfed the continent with the question ‘who are the chosen?’, the announcements rolled, triggering excitement, jubilation, congratulations, as well as disappointments from hopefuls who didn’t make the list.
Ghanaian Songstress Adina got the audience singing all along her brand new song Makoma which features Sarkodie. Kuami Eugene and KiDi took the excitement higher with a duet which they dedicated to all Ghanaian DJs.
