Ghana’s number one youth oriented radio station, YFM, has launched the second edition of its highly anticipated Y-Rated Awards at its studio in Accra.
The Y Rated Awards was introduced last year to acknowledge Ghanaian artistes who have greatly contributed to Ghana’s music industry with their hits and jams.
As it was in the first edition, the awards scheme comes as part of activities to mark YFM’s anniversary which falls in this month of November. This year, however, takes a different twist as the award scheme forms the central part of the station’s twelfth anniversary.
A distinct feature of this year’s Y-Rated Awards is that the award categories have increased from eleven categories to twelve categories to mark the twelve years anniversary.
Audience can expect categories such as Best Rated Song of the Year, Best Rated Take of the Year, Next Rated Artiste of the Year (which goes to new artistes of the Year), Best Rated Reggae-Dancehall song, Best Rated Highlife Song, Best Rated Afro-Pop Song of the Year, Best Rated Rap Song of the Year, Best Rated Group of the Year, Best Rated Collaboration of the Year, Best Rated African Song of the Year, Best Rated Gospel Song of the Year and the new introduction, Best Rated Video of the Year.
Programmes Manager of YFM, Eddy Blay, speaking on the Awards Scheme revealed, “One interesting thing about this year is that we are doing it in collaboration with 4Syte TV. The event itself is going to happen on the 27th of November, 2020 at the 4Syte mansion.
Nomination process is still ongoing. It will be opened on Saturday and voting starts on 9th of November. You can visit our social media platforms and website to vote. Keep locked to YFM and on our media platforms and you will be having more information.
