Anita Erskine
Starr Drive co-host on Starr 103.5FM, Anita Erskine, will be the host for this year’s Vodafone Ghana Music Awards (VGMA) which will take place tonight at the Accra International Conference Centre in Accra (AICC).
Though many names of astute female celebrities came up, yet organisers of the prestigious awards settled on the television and radio personality as the official host for the highly-anticipated event.
Erskine will be ably supported by Joy FM’s DJ Black, who is the official DJ for the awards.
This year’s event is expected to attract a large number of stakeholders, including international artistes from UK, Nigeria, Kenya, South Africa and the United States.
Tonight, Charterhouse will reward deserving artistes for their hard work, dedication and contribution to Ghana’s music industry.
Some of the artistes tipped to win awards include Sarkodie, Joe Mettle, Stonebwoy, E.L, Mzvee, Kofi Kinaata and a host of others.
The event will witness performances from artistes such as Sarkodie, Becca, Nacee, E.L, Medikal, M.anifest, Kofi Kinaata, Stonebwoy, among others.
The event is arguably the biggest night on the Ghana music calendar as artistes are recognised for their work over the year under review.
This year, no matter who wins the artiste of the year title, history will be made.
The artiste of the year is the topmost award at the awards. It is given to the artiste(s) adjudged by the academy, board and the general public as having the highest audience appeal and popularity in a particular year.
