Following the 2024 3Music Awards, the TV station broadcasting the event took to Facebook to congratulate a handful of artists who took the stage. The honored performers included Akwaboa, Holyrina, Adina, Knii Lante, Renner, Kojo Trip, and Enam.
However, the congratulatory post raised eyebrows, as it implied that only these select artists performed at the event. The awards night, anticipated to be spectacular, was notably marred by the absence of several high-profile nominees, including Black Sherif, Amerado, and King Paluta.
The glaring omissions sparked speculation about the reasons behind their non-attendance. Fans and industry insiders alike wondered if the absences were due to scheduling conflicts, creative differences, or something more.
Despite the notable no-shows, the performers who did take the stage delivered memorable performances. The TV station’s congratulatory post acknowledged their hard work and dedication.
The 3Music Awards, renowned for celebrating Ghanaian music excellence, faced criticism for the lackluster turnout of top nominees. As the music industry continues to evolve, organizers will likely reassess strategies to ensure future events showcase the best of Ghanaian talent.
