Black Sherif deserves this year’s VGMA Artiste of the Year because he worked really hard – Ras Kuuku

Ras Kuuku, a fellow Ghanaian Reggae/Dancehall singer, has eloquently argued why Black Sherif, a teenage music sensation, deserves to take home the top prize at the 2018 Vodafone Ghana Music Awards.

The performer who has had the biggest impact on the music industry during the past year is given the Artiste of the Year award, the top honor at the VGMAs.

Ras Kuuku believed that the singer of “Oil On My Head” had a better chance of winning Artiste of the Year but that it would be challenging for him to win the Reggae Song or Reggae Artiste award due to the fierce competition in both categories.

“This time we have worked hard. Everyone knows about ‘3 3 in 1'. This year is not going to anyone who is not a Reggae/Dancehall artiste,” he revealed

RasKuuku who spoke highly of Black Sherif's success said it was due to his hard work and dedication to his craft.

“Let me tell you Black Sherif is winning the Artiste of the Year because he worked hard but when it comes to the Reggae side we [Ras Kuuku and team] worked harder,” he noted

According to RasKuuku, he was on the verge of winning at least one of the awards he's been nominated for at the upcoming VGMA for his album “3 3 & 1 (Miensa Miensa Ne Baako)'

“For the genre, it's Ras Kuuku who did best and you know it. It's coming back to Puom. If not Reggae Artiste of the Year, Reggae/Dancehall song is coming to Puom”
