TGMA 2024: I wanted to be nominated for Songwriter of the Year – Nacee

Gospel musician Nana Osei, better known by his stage as Nacee has expressed his dissatisfaction at not having received a nomination for Songwriter of the Year at the Telecel Ghana Music Awards (TGMA).

Speaking in an interview with TV3 on May 3, Nacee said he thought his compositions and lyrical substance merited nomination for the said category.

“Unfortunately, one of the categories that we wish we would have been nominated for is the Songwriter of the Year because in Aseda, the composition is really deep,” he said.

Reflecting on his own experience, Nacee said he wasn’t surprised about his nomination for TGMA due to the successes of his song ‘Aseda’ and his contributions to the industry.

“Honestly, I knew I would be nominated because the song ‘Aseda’ and the artiste did pretty well.

“The management did a lot of things to make sure that at least we would be nominated as well,” he stated.

Nacee earned three nominations for this year’s TGMA including Artiste of the Year, Gospel Song of the Year and Gospel Artiste of the Year.
