Rapper Sarkodie makes history at the 2019 Vodafone Ghana Music Awards as he grabs the most talked about category, “Artiste of the Decade”.
Ever since Charterhouse Ghana – the organisers of award scheme – announced the nominees, there have been a lot of tension and friction among music loves in and outside Ghana.
Even though the category definition made it clear that any nominated artiste with a hit single or album in the last 10 years could win, fans still debated and created hundreds of polls to find the likely winner.

But at the main event which happened on Saturday, April 18, at the Accra International Conference Centre, Sarkodie emerged the winner.
He beat off stiff competition from Okyeame Kwame, Shatta Wale, Stonebwoy, Nacee and No Tribe, Joe Mettle, Efya, Becca, R2Bees and Samini to grab the prestigious awards.
On accepting the award, Sarkodie’s manager, Angel Town, gave props to all his contenders, saying they are the BET rapper’s biggest motivation.
