Ghana’s music scene has a new star on the rise as Yaw Darling, the dynamic artist under Sky Entertainment, has claimed the coveted Unsung Artiste of the Year crown at the 26th Telecel Ghana Awards (TGMA).
This award celebrates emerging talents who’ve carved a niche in the industry with grit and creativity, even before mainstream fame comes knocking; and for Yaw Darling, that moment is now.
With a repertoire of seven infectious singles, the artist has been unstoppable in the year under review.
Tracks like the vibrant “TGIF Party” (featuring rap heavyweight Medikal), the soulful “Investment” (with highlife icon Bisa Kdei), and the groove-heavy “Password” have turned heads nationwide, blending modern flair with classic highlife rhythms.
His music isn’t just heard—it’s felt, soundtracking parties, road trips, and heartfelt moments across Ghana.
But Yaw Darling’s rise isn’t just about studio magic. The artist has become a stage sensation, igniting crowds from the Volta Region to Ashanti with his electric performances.
Earlier this year, he took his energy global, storming the UK with a media tour and show-stopping sets at R2BEEs’ Independence Day concert and a headline gig alongside OlivetheBoy in Manchester.
Each show cemented his reputation as a performer who leaves audiences buzzing long after the last note.
This TGMA win isn’t just a trophy, it’s a launchpad. The award unlocks a transformative marketing and distribution deal with Warner , poised to catapult Yaw Darling’s sound onto the world stage.
And at the awards ceremony itself, he seized the spotlight, delivering a performance that had the crowd roaring for more.
“This is only the beginning,” the artist shared post-win, his gratitude palpable.
With his genre-blending hits, magnetic stage presence, and a powerhouse team at Sky Entertainment, Yaw Darling is primed to dominate playlists and charts alike.
Congratulations to Yaw Darling and Sky Entertainment—a win well-earned, and a future blazing with promise.
