Maccasio’s Reggae/Dancehall Nomination is An Achievement but Not Enough to Win Vodafone Ghana Music Awards 2022
The Vodafone Ghana Music Awards is undoubtedly one of the most prestigious music award ceremonies in Ghana.
The award ceremony celebrates the best of Ghanaian music, recognizing and rewarding the hard work of artists who have excelled in their various fields.
In recent times, the Reggae/Dancehall category has been one of the most fiercely contested categories, with several talented artists vying for the coveted award.
However, in 2022, it is safe to say that rapper Maccasio does not stand a chance of winning the Reggae/Dancehall category of the Vodafone Ghana Music Awards.
Maccasio, who has been making music for several years now, is undoubtedly one of the most talented rappers in Ghana.
However, when it comes to Reggae/Dancehall, Maccasio’s music does not measure up to the standards of the other artists in the category.
Maccasio’s music is predominantly hip-hop and has little to no reggae or dancehall influences.
While it is true that Maccasio has incorporated some elements of Reggae/Dancehall into his music, it is not enough to compete with the other artists in the category who have been consistently producing Reggae/Dancehall music for years.
One of the biggest contenders in the Reggae/Dancehall category for the 2022 Vodafone Ghana Music Awards is Epixode, Ras Kuuku and Rocky Dawuni.
Their music is deeply rooted in the Reggae/Dancehall genre, and he has consistently produced hit after hit in the genre.
It is not just the genre of music that sets Maccasio apart from the other artists in the category.
Maccasio’s fan base is primarily made up of young people in the northern part of Ghana.
While this is a significant demographic, it is not enough to secure him the award. The Vodafone Ghana Music Awards is a national award ceremony that recognizes the best of Ghanaian music.
The winner of the Reggae/Dancehall category should be an artist whose music is enjoyed and appreciated by Ghanaians all over the country, not just in one particular region.
