2015 GHANA DJ AWARDS MAKE HISTORY & FULL LIST OF WINNERS

The 3rd annual Ghana DJ Awards which came off last Saturday at the Accra International Conference Centre turned out to be the best in the history of Ghana DJ Awards and even with that, it had its own ups and downs.

This year’s event I would say, organizers put in much effort, time and money in the organization but to some extent the public didn’t understand why they should attend the event hence low patronage due to the bad image placed on the previous ones.

Aside the late start and low patronage of the event, all other things were on point with regards to lighting, sound, stage set up, red carpet, and others.

Some of the awards which to me were not given to the rightful owners, were the Best DJ - DJ Black, Best Discovery DJ – DJ Breezy and DJs Song of the Year – ‘Monko Mo Akyi’ by Joyce Blessing. This is not to say that they don’t deserve the award.

DJ Black for instance is one of the finest DJs the country can boost of, but for him to win the Best DJ in three separate occasions was not fair to the other great DJs nominated in that category.

For DJ Breezy’s Best Discovery DJ award, is one particular award that I find it difficult to understand why it was given to him in the first place. I stand to be corrected, but I have known him to be someone who produces and make beats but for him to play the timetables at a show is something that I haven’t seen or heard him do. And it should have been won by someone else.

Songs that were nominated in DJs Song of the Year were songs that were difficult to predict a winner. But for Joyce Blessing’s ‘Monko Mo Akyi’ song to win in that category makes it very questionable.

Okyeame Kwame, Keche, Miray, Asantewa,Vybrant Faya and some upcoming artistes performed to make the night a successful one.

In all I will say, the organizers have done well in the coordination of this year’s event but they should do their possible best to make the DJ Awards one of the best shows in Ghana and beyond.
