Rapper Edem claims he was robbed of 2015 VGMA Artiste of the Year award

“Why #BallondOr come dey behave like the way VGMA take do me 2015 Artist of the Year? This is a heinous crime!! A daylight robbery!! … Vinicius Jr is the REAL WINNER’? ” he wrote.

Daddy Lumba, Stonebwoy, Guru, Edem, MzVee, Sarkodie and Samini were the 2015 nominees for the Artiste of the Year category in the Vodafone Ghana Music Awards.

Stonebwoy who won Artiste of the Year slot said in his speech, “I believe that the other artistes are happy I won…Behold how tall we have grown…This is well deserved.”

Stonebwoy, Sarkodie and Edem who were the biggest winners on the night, took home three (3) awards each.

Edem’s ‘Koene’ had several nominations as the remix of his song, ‘The One’ also earned him a nomination in the Best Rapper Category.
