Winners for the 5th edition of the 3Music Awards were announced at an eventful ceremony held at the Grand Arena on Saturday evening.
The event which started with a pre-show event mixed with red carpet interviews and some performances had technical challenges which led to the very late start of the main show and disapprovals from the viewing public across social media. But when the show finally kicked off, it saw creative and exciting performances from Black Sherif, Joe Mettle, Ohemaa Mercy, Kuami Eugene, KiDi, Mona Gucci and several others.
Kidi won the topmost honours on the night but winning the Artist of The Year nod.
