Joe Mettle’s honours keep piling up after picking up the Artiste of the Year at the 2017 VGMA with a nomination in the Man of the Year – Entertainment category.
Joe Mettle is joined in that category by Shatta Wale. The crowds favourite and highly charged up artist could not have been overlooked when his hit single ‘Taking Over’ ruling the airways.
Thrown in the mix and completing the trio of musicians is Stonebwoy. Stonebwoy been playing shows outside the country like no one’s business.
Okyeame Kwame gets recognised in the Man of the Year – Style category for his enviable fashion sense.
The Small Small hit maker has been turning heads with his style of late and that earns him this privileged that no other musician gets.
In every event organised at the turn of last year into this year, one name has popped up in every discovery category.
