Ghanaian musician and media personality, Blakk Rasta has defended Dr UN.
Speaking in a recent interview with Ghanaweb that Newshuntermag.com has chanced on, Blakk asserted that Dr UN’s award is better than VGMA.
He further described the Vodafone Ghana Music Awards (VGMA) as ‘useless awards’.
Blakk Rasta also revealed that Dr UN was his mate of Dr UN at the Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology (KNUST).
“His awards will even be better than the VGMA which is a useless award. This VGMA is a useless award because people are voting. They are buying votes and that is corrupt… Dr UN was asked why he didn’t nominate me and he said Blakk Rasta was bigger than my awards…the point is this when VGMA is making their awards, you have to vote. When you vote, they give it to the highest bidder, the one who votes more.
“They are not even ashamed of it, they will ask you, ‘did you vote?’. You didn’t win and you are crying. So did you buy the awards? Dr UN didn’t do that, he just pinpointed people in the society he felt with his panelist that these people deserved this award and they awarded them, that is how an award system should go…I will prefer Dr UN’s award to VGMA any day,” Blakk Rasta stated.
Dr UN, known in private life as Kwame Fordjour, swindled a section of Ghanaian celebrities with his Global Blueprint Excellence Awards a few years ago.
