I have 50 more years to go in my music career – Stonebwoy
17th July 2024
Ghanaian artiste Stonebwoy has mentioned that despite the greater achievements he had made in the music industry, he still has a long way to go.
According to him, he has fifty more years to play his trade in the music industry.
“I am yet to work with Appietus in my career, so I have fifty more years to go. Nothing happen. If I am here to work with Appietus, you can just imagine,” he said while acknowledging the contributions made by music producers such as Fredima, Mix Master Garzy and Appietus during Telecel Ghana Music Awards held on Saturday, July 13, 2024.
The ceremony, organised by Charterhouse Ghana, the annual Ghana Music Awards producers, brought together influential executives and stakeholders in Ghana’s creative economy.
Attendees included record producers, representatives from copyright and music rights organizations, musicians, and creative entrepreneurs.
Stonebwoy was presented with his official TGMA plaques at the event after delivering an outstanding performance.
The celebrated musician took the stage to receive the awards and said: “I humbly just want to say thank you guys [industry] so much for supporting the Ghana Music Awards.
“This is the only one we have. For me, if I have to work harder 100 times and win what is deserved 100 times, I think it’s in the right way for Ghana music.”
At the Silver Jubilee edition of the Telecel Ghana Music Awards, held on June 1, 2024, in Accra Ghana, Stonebwoy emerged as the winner in seven categories, picking up awards for Best Reggae and Dancehall Artiste for a record eighth time, Best Album/EP, Best International Collaboration, Record of the Year, Best Songwriter, Best Collaboration, and the ultimate prize, Artiste of the Year.
These historic wins at the 25th Telecel Ghana Music Awards make Stonebwoy the second most-awarded artiste in a single night since the scheme’s inception, following legendary Ofori Amponsah’s notable achievement in 2006.
Stonebwoy recently released his new single ‘Your Body’, a beautiful masterpiece celebrating African beauty, self-love, and body positivity.
Interweaving strains of pop, R&B, and reggae melodies, with Stonebwoy, deftly switching between singing and rapping, “Your Body” explores a seductive and playful vibe.
The song serves as a precursor to Stonebwoy’s highly anticipated sixth studio album, slated for release later this year.
