Ghanaian rapper, Lyrical Joe has expressed his disappointment for not being able to win the Best Rapper of the Year award at the Ghana Music Awards in 2023.
The rapper contended that his song which was nominated for that category has all the requirement the board needed to be declared winner of the category.
Lyrical Joe believes he was cheated by the Board of the Ghana Music Awards when Amerado won the award in 2023.
He made these assertions during an interview on TV3’s New Day on Friday, May 24.
“Personally, I feel cheated. My songs that get nominated for Best rap performance, it is boot for boot. If its is being judged by the board, you will pick every of them.
“I am the only person that almost have a ten-minute rap song in the category with a ten-minute music video with different deliveries, puns on puns, everything that they said that it’s been looked for so anytime any of my fifth August songs gets nominated and it doesn’t win, I feel cheated,” he said on Friday, May 24.
