Ghanaian entertainment pundit, Sally Mann, has dragged King Paluta and shared her thoughts about hardworking musicians who deserve to win the Artiste of the Year award at the 2025 Telecel Ghana Music Awards.
The outspoken media personality disclosed that Ghanaian rapper Michael Owusu Addo, popularly called Sarkodie, has been given legendary status, which is why he was nominated for the Artiste of the Year award.
“King Paluta is not an artist with a fanbase. If he had one, he would have organised his own concert. They have been calling stakeholders in the entertainment industry to get them to listen to his songs.
“He doesn’t have a solid brand. Things that artists with a solid brand did to beat the imagination of people, he didn’t do. King Paluta is not winning the artist of the year. He will never win the artist of the year. He doesn’t have any brand.”

Sally Mann disclosed that Stonebwoy has a solid brand, which made him win the Artiste of the Year award last year. She emphasised that Stonebwoy has won the prestigious award three times when they add the data from the 2019 awards show.
In a heated argument, Sally Mann explained why Stonebwoy deserves to be in the artiste of the year category, although people are saying that King Promise has a better chance.
She boldly stated that King Paluta doesn’t have a brand and that he can’t be compared to musicians like Stonebwoy and King Promise.
“However, what makes King Promise and Stonebwoy beat King Paluta is branding. He doesn’t have a brand. He is a hungry rapper, and Ghanaians have given him a chance.”

Some social media users commented on Sally Mann’s video that has gone viral on Instagram.
“He will definitely come for her and I’m going to be happy about it.”

“Why can’t we as Ghanaians just appreciate our talents. Why must we always use our media space to attack and put our artists who are trying hard to make an impact and a living. Why does it always look like we are always attacking our stars. When and why have we become like this?”

“Though branding plays a pivotal role in every artiste career but someone should let this lady know that. This is music awards and not fashion awards…sia_banku.”
