Celebrated highlife musician George Darko is all clear to pick
up the Best Highlife Video award at Saturday’s Music Video
Awards.
The ‘Ako Te Brofo’ singer is facing competition from Kwabena
Kwabena, Kwame Zaggy, Jay Ghartey, King David, Bless
and Adane Best. But his management team Mirror Image
Promotions has said they are optimistic about a win on a night
that would be celebrating a 17 other musicians.
George’s “Lucky Star” video, directed by Ezekiel Tetteh (STIP)
of Solid Multimedia, looks the obvious favourite to pick the
award in this category.
Arguably one of Ghana’s most talked about highlife acts,
George celebrated his 60th birthday this year, and used the
occasion to launch his album “Lucky Star”. He has been busy
all year round performing in and out of Ghana, to some great
responses.
The album has enjoyed considerable success both home and
abroad, receiving reviews and heavy rotation on various radio
and television platforms.
“With time, George has proved his worth and kept the highlife
genre going. I think it is fair to say that George is one of the
reasons why highlife received so much attention this year. If
there is that one person who ensured that the genre was back
on its feet this year, then it is George.
The Music Video award will go to endorse the hard work he
put in this year,” says Boakye Nhyira, Manager for George
Darko.
