Mr Drew disapointed over losing 'Best Collaboration of the Year'
Ghanaian artist Mr Drew has indicated that he expected his song, ‘Case’ to win ‘Best Collaboration of the Year’ category at the 2024 Telecel Ghana Music Awards (TGMAs).
During an interview with 3Music TV monitored by News & Vibes, he expressed his disappointment with the results and insisted his song was better than any other song in that category.
Mr. Drew explained that the ‘Collaboration of the Year’ award should focus on recognizing songs that have had a significant impact on the music scene in Ghana, especially those that feature lesser-known artists and have transformed their careers.
“I think that featuring an unknown artist yet achieving significant success to the point of changing the lives of the artists involved is what the collaboration of the year should represent.”
He called for transparency from the TGMA organizers and mentioned that he was seeking an explanation for the decision-making process that resulted in his song not winning the award.
Mr. Drew, born Andrew Nii Commey Otoo, is a talented Ghanaian Highlife and Afrobeats singer and dancer. Born on June 10, 1996, in Accra, Ghana, Mr. Drew has made a significant impact in the music industry.
He gained recognition as the runner-up on MTN Hitmaker Season 6 in 2017 and later signed with Highly Spiritual Music. However, he parted ways with the label after five years due to unfavorable contract terms. Undeterred, Mr. Drew released his debut album, ALPHA, in 2021, featuring notable artists like Victor AD and KiDi.
His hard work and talent have earned him prestigious awards, including Best New Artist at the Vodafone Ghana Music Awards and 3Music Awards in 2021. With his soulful voice and captivating stage presence, Mr. Drew is a rising star in the African music scene.
