The 26th Telecel Ghana Music Awards came with the glitz and glams and musician Sylvester Kwakye, widely known in showbiz circles as Chairman K, did not lose out on this experience.

Clad in a sharp, dark blue tailored suit accentuated with elaborate gold embroidery along the shoulder and sleeve, Chairman K stood tall and proud against a vivid red backdrop.

The outfit, paired with a crisp white shirt, slim black tie, and a regal black traditional cap with gold designs, symbolized both cultural pride and personal reinvention. His look drew admiration, capturing the attention of many at the event for its blend of sophistication and identity.

Chairman K has been a notable figure in Ghana’s music industry since 1999. He shot to fame in 2003 with his nationwide hit "AIDS Aduro", a song that resonated across communities for both its rhythm and message. Over the years, he has collaborated with celebrated Ghanaian artistes such as Flowking Stone and Kwadwo Nkansah (LilWin).

However, the journey hasn’t always been smooth. Balancing academics and music proved challenging, prompting him to pause his music career to pursue higher education. Chairman K is an alumnus of Osei Kyeretwie Senior High School (OKESS) and holds both a Bachelor’s and Master’s degree in Mathematics Education.

Now, he returns to the limelight with new music, including "Wogye Wo Din" and the controversial "M3bo Wo Dua", which sparked public debate and a fiery clash with outspoken entertainment critic Sally Mann. Following Sally’s critique of his song, the musician, without equivocation, threatened to assault the critic, as he deemed the remarks as an attack on his career. 

With plans to collaborate with artists from Nigeria, Liberia, and South Africa, Chairman K’s resurgence signals not just a comeback, but a reinvention—and judging by both his style and energy, he’s back with a bang.

The 26^th Telecel Ghana Music Awards was held at the Grand Arena on Saturday, May 10, 2025.
