Hiplife pioneer Reggie Rockstone has publicly tipped Wendy Shay as a standout contender for the 2026 Telecel Ghana Music Awards, saying her possible win in the Artiste of the Year category would deliver one of the night’s most memorable narratives.
He shared his thoughts on Joy FM’s Showbiz A-Z on May 2, 2026, where he admitted the nominee lineup was strong, but made it clear Wendy Shay’s potential triumph would resonate with him the most.
“It will be a beautiful story if Wendy picks it up. I am just saying even from the outlook. Of course, I would love for Medikal too because he has put in a lot of work. But it will be beautiful. It will make me smile really big,” he said.
This year’s top prize sees Wendy Shay face stiff competition from Medikal, Black Sherif, Diana Hamilton, Stonebwoy, and Sarkodie at the May 9 ceremony.
For both Wendy Shay and Medikal, the award represents a potential first win in the category. Black Sherif and Diana Hamilton have previously claimed the honour once each, while Stonebwoy and Sarkodie return as seasoned multiple winners.
The 2026 TGMA ceremony is set to take place at the Palms Convention Centre on May 9.
