Ghanaian gospel musician Broda Sammy says he strongly believes he will never get nominated for Telecel Ghana Music Awards, due to his rivalry with his colleague gospel musician, Nacee.
According to him, Nacee is currently one of the board members of the awards scheme and for that reason, his presence will influence his chances of getting a nomination or even winning an award.
Speaking with Andy Dosty on Daybreak Hitz, he emphatically stated that Nacce is the reason he isn’t able to bag awards.
“I know a lot of individuals at the board membership position of the Ghana Music Awards, but it's only his. This is because he is the reason my name gets omitted anytime I grab a nomination.
“I was invited for a dinner but I later noticed my name had been replaced with Ghanaian gospel musician, Ceccy Twum who was then building her song with Nacee”, he said on Hitz FM.
He further stated that it is the same fate for all Gospel musicians who do not work with Nacce in the production of their songs.
The ‘Amen’ hitmaker gave instances where he feels the Award schemes were influenced.
“This could be traced, if you are a gospel musician and you do not do your studio work with Nacee, take your name out of the reward scheme. This has affected the likes of musicians like Obaapa Christy because she records with Bassey Studios.”
“Bank in the time when Joe Mettle had received the ‘Artiste of the Year’ award, Nacee already knew because after he had received his own, he had made a statement saying he is in wait of his brother, Joe Mettle’s” he stated.
He questioned why and how Nacee, who hasn’t yet retired from the music industry, earned the position of a board member.
“Nacee is part of the board membership and he will continue to receive the awards until he dies even when he doesn’t deserve them. No award could bypass persons who form part of the board to those already nominated”, he added.
He however, said that heads and directors of this award scheme should be stern with new rules.
“Leaders of this scheme should set new rules stating one could only be part of the awards scheme when he or she has retired from the music industry. We should face facts and say the truth”, he said.
