Ghanaian Gospel singer, and first-time VGMA nominee, Nana Yaw Boakye, known by his stage name, MOG, has revealed that he got very emotional when he realised he had been nominated for this year’s VGMAs.
The artiste says, he got overwhelmed and emotional to the point of shedding tears.
Speaking in an interview on Happy FM, MOG said: “I cried when I received my nomination. Others have also worked hard. It is a humble opportunity when the spotlight falls on you. Honestly, I wasn’t expecting the nomination”.
According to MOG, “As much as one can have self confidence in his or her work, I didn’t have that much hope”.
Further elaborating why he was surprised to the point of tears, the gospel artiste revealed: “I decided not to submit again when we didn’t hear anything the last time but the team insisted we summit this time around too and that’s how far we’ve reached”, he said.
