3Music Awards 2022: All the nominees
The nominees for the annual 3Music Awards were announced at a ceremony in Accra, Ghana, on Friday.
- KiDi was the biggest winner at the 3Music Awards in 2021.
This year’s edition will run under the banner, More Than Music, and will recognise musical accomplishments in multiple categories including Afropop, hiplife, hip hop, gospel and alternative.
“More Than Music is an upgrade on the famed 3Music Awards mantra, Here for the Music, and aptly encapsulates the elevation in both the standards and make-up of the event this year,” 3Media Networks CEO Sadiq Abdulai Abu said. “This year, there will be more segments, more awards, more inclusivity and wider reach. We are putting the spotlight on music and all other auxiliaries that facilitate and enable the success of the art form.”
The 2022 3Music Awards will see the return of a live audience following digital editions due to COVID-19 restrictions over the past two years.
Afropop singer KiDi, who was last year’s biggest winner and won the coveted Artist of the Year Award, will be looking to retain his title. He faces competition from Black Sherif, Celestine Donkor, D-Black, Kuami Eugene, Mr Drew, Sarkodie, Stonebwoy and Gyakie.
Meanwhile, entertainment pundit Vida Adutwumwaa Boateng has been appointed as the new 3Music Awards spokesperson. The appointment, according to the organisers, is in line with the platform’s commitment to promoting and rewarding women who distinguish themselves in the Ghanaian entertainment and arts space. Boateng brings to her new post more than a decade of frontline experience, having worked with a number of Ghanaian media outlets. Last year, she served on the 3Music Awards academy.
