Rapper turned singer, Amerado has expressed worry about how he did not gain nomination for the Telecel Ghana Music Awards (TGMA) songwriter of the year category.
According to him, the lyrics of his song “Abronoma” should have fetched him that nomination.
Speaking in a recent media interview, the “Kweku Ananse” hitmaker stated that he was marveled when he did not make it to the songwriter of the year.
“I was expecting to be in the Songwriter of the Year category with Abronoma and up to now it still marvels my mind why I didn’t go in there,” he lamented.
Amerado strongly believed that he would have won the songwriter of the year, if his name was not shunned from that category.
However, he believed that Stonebwoy’s “Psalm 23” deserved the award for the Reggae Song of the Year category.
According to him, he did not feel perturbed about the song winning the award over his track “Ankonam.”
Amerado indicated that “Psalm 23” was one of his favorite songs from Stonebwoy, hence accepted the outcome.
“But with the ones that I got nominated for, I think Ankonam. I expected Ankonam to win the Reggae Song of the Year but then it went to Stonebwoy, which is also fine because Psalm 23 is also one of my favorite songs from Stonebwoy,” he stated.
His unhappiness stemmed from the fact that his song “Abronoma” did not receive a nomination in the ‘Songwriter of the Year’ category.
