The group will also spend some time with past PFWA Ghanaian finalists Nii, Kojo and Kesse.
The Ghana Music Awards, according to the artistes’ minders, is not the only event the trio will attend as a group this year. ‘Many more major events are coming. And the idea is that we make sure our best talents
