Ghanaian musician Shatta Wale has thrown his weight behind King Promise's bid for the Artiste of the Year award.
The fierce race ahead of the Telecel Ghana Music Awards show on May 10 is between seven artistes, including Stonebwoy, King Paluta.
King Promise has been tagged as one of the clear favourites. He is the most nominated among the competitors.
Last year, King Promise lost to Stonebwoy, whose star-studded 5th Dimension album and critically acclaimed stadium concert gave him an edge over King Promise.
This year, both artistes are likely to go at each other for the ultimate prize again at the 26th Telecel Ghana Music Awards.
Scores of fans have already begun reviewing King Promise's chances of beating Stonebwoy and other top contenders..
In the video, Shatta Wale, who was once banned from the awards scheme, publicly hailed King Promise as Artiste of the Year.
They were spotted in public heartily conversing in their native language, Ga.
