All nominations at 3Music Awards based on merit not favours- OB Nartey

3Music Awards Board member refutes allegations of malice and manipulations levelled against the 3Music Awards

OB Nartey, a board member of the 3Music Awards has addressed criticism of the scheme in recent weeks.

The charismatic music industrialist told MzGee in a Pre-show interview on the drip carpet that nominations for the annual 3Music Awards were objective and strictly ingrained on category definitions and merit, not favour.

3Music Awards has come under intense criticism from different angles in recent weeks. Blakk Rasta and Bullgod are the latest duo within the last week who has questioned the credibility of the awards, although neither provided any kind of proof or basis.

And now the awards, reputed as the most innovative music event on the continent, is fighting back.
