The 27th edition of the Telecel Ghana Music Awards (TGMA) came off on Saturday, May 9.
The event held at the Grand Arena of the Accra International Conference Centre saw Black Sheriff walk away with five awards, including the coveted Artiste of the Year.
The evening was largely a duel between Black Sherif and Medikal. The AMG rapper secured four major trophies, notably reclaiming his crown as the Best Hiplife/Hip-Hop Artiste and winning Best Collaboration for the viral hit 'Shoulder'.
