Musician Black Sherif has called for greater recognition of Wendy Shay in the ongoing conversation around the Artiste of the Year category, citing her hard work and achievements over the past year.
Speaking to Kafui Dey, Black Sherif expressed concern that Wendy Shay, despite making the official list of nominees, has been largely overlooked in discussions about the top award. “I don’t really like how people are not mentioning Wendy Shay for the Artiste of the Year category… We should empower women,” he said.
This year, the category features strong contenders including Black Sherif himself, Medikal, Stonebwoy, Sarkodie, Wendy Shay, and Diana Hamilton, making it one of the most competitive in recent memory. Black Sherif’s endorsement underscores the need to acknowledge female artists’ contributions to Ghana’s music industry.
