She\u2019s done marvelous. Every song she has dropped back to back is a hit,\u201d he said on 3FM while stating that he would lead a campaign for her in that regard.<\/p>\n<p>The debate on who wins the coveted category has been going on for a while on social media and on some entertainment talk shows even before organisers call for entries, abrantepa.com has observed.<\/p>\n<p>While some argue that 2017 has been a good year for Ebony, taking into cognisance the release of hit songs, quality videos and performing on almost all the high profile shows, others believe Fancy Gadam deserves the crown.<\/p>\n<p>Artiste manager, Bulldog, for instance, says it will not be fair if Ebony wins as he believes the reigning New Artist of the Year, Fancy Gadam, deserves it more.<\/p>\n<p>He posits that Fancy Gadam has been able to break the marginalisation of Northern-based artistes to make it big in the South with two great concerts and a hit song which features rapper Sarkodie.<\/p>\n<p>Ebony has hit songs \u2013 \u2018Poison\u2019, \u2018Sponsor\u2019, \u2018Date Ur Fada\u2019 and \u2018Hustle\u2019 \u2013 and recently launched her album.<\/p>\n<p>The category definition of VGMA Artiste of the Year states that: \u201cArtiste of the Year is the Artiste(s) adjudged by the Academy, Board and the General Public as the Artiste(s) with the highest audience appeal and popularity. The Artiste(s) must have released a hit single\/album during the year under review.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"600\" height=\"350\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/MeJeqbkiOaU\" frameborder=\"0\" gesture=\"media\" allow=\"encrypted-media\" allowfullscreen=\"\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p><!-- uploaded by: 49 updated by: -1 --><\/p>\n<p><!-- Start of html generated by this->footer() -->\n<\/div>\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a style=\"display:none\" rel=\"follow\" href=\"http:\/\/megatheme.ir\/\" title=\"\u0642\u0627\u0644\u0628 \u0648\u0631\u062f\u067e\u0631\u0633\">\u0642\u0627\u0644\u0628 \u0648\u0631\u062f\u067e\u0631\u0633<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Entertainment of Friday, 8 December 2017 Source: abrantepa.com 2017-12-08 Ebony Reigns Dancehall artiste, Epixode is the latest showbiz figure to suggest that songstress, Ebony Reigns deserves to be adjudged Artiste of the Year in the next edition of the Ghana Music Awards.
