The Ghana Music Awards has always had its criticism from the nomination stages to award winners and this year’s edition has not been excluded from this outcry. With some few days to the 2011 Vodafone Ghana Music Awards festival, a night set to honour deserving artistes in Ghana, the “Ajeei” hit makers “R2Bees” made up of Paedae and Mugeez have lashed out at the VGMA’s calling it a joke and not worth it.

The official handle of the group on twitter this morning fully explained why they believed the Ghana Music Awards was a joke. First the group said “Sorry we don’t retweet ur congratz msgs regarding the GMAs, its cause we believe its not credible, and its fraudulent, read nex tweet”.

On to their next tweet, the group went ahead to say “”#Ajeei is the only official single we released last year, and if its banned, tell me which song’s been nominated for the 3 categories???”

In as much as the tweet makes sense, the question arises as to why the group did not ask the organisers of the event to pull them out of the categories.

In an attempt to find out if the tweets from that handle really represented the views of the music group or it had been hacked, the manager of the group Gomsky, confirmed the tweets to the Drive time host of Kapital Radio, NY DJ saying they really represented the group’s views and none other.

In a sarcastic manner, the handle went ahead with a tweet to propose a track they thought perhaps qualified them for the nominations “Perhaps its Mugeez’s Oleku Cover, lol jokers”.

They refused not to lament on the reasons given as to why the hit track “Ajeei “ was disqualified saying “And no disrespect to Atumpan but if *The Thing* which not only is profane but promotes underage sex gets the nod then cool...”

The music group however said “The satisfaction in seeing genuine happiness on the fans faces when we go out there will forever exceed man’s lust for a common plastic” and has asked for buyers of their plastic awards should they win any “ However! If @r2bees should win any awards! Who go buy am cos we sell am or we go goo melt am for Alomi! Ye hia cash! Raaaaaaaaaaaah!!”
