All is set for the annual Bass Awards show to celebrate reggae and dancehall artistes and songs that have made a huge impact on the scene for the previous year.

As part of the awards ceremony a number of electrifying performances have been lined up for the night with the exciting Ahmed Mujahid Bello aka Fancy Gadam from Tamale expected to deliver an electrifying performance. Fancy has been nominated in five categories which includes Dancehall Artiste of the Year, Dancehall Song of the Year and New Artiste of the Year which he is heavily tipped to win. Topping the list of nominations is Stoneboy with eight awards and the likes of US based Rocky Dawuni with five nominations.

Other artistes billed to perform on the night include Jupitar, Ras Kuuku, Rudebwoy Ranking, Mz Vee, Knii Lante and A.K Songstress.

Ace reggae dancehall artiste Osagyefo who has been nominated in the two categories describes the Bass Awards “as an event for our genre and deserves to be supported.” According to Ezekiel Stip of Stip Multimedia who are partnering Bullhause Entertainment for the awards, this year’s event is set to nudge the bar even higher in terms of production, performances and the general ambience of the show.

This year’s edition is the fourth since the Bass Awards was instituted in 2013. The event is supported by Trace 57 and the EIB Network, TV 7, and other media partners.
