I can and will win TGMA Artist of the Year again – KiDi

Musician KiDi has voiced his conviction that he will once again secure the Artist of the Year award at the Telecel Ghana Music Awards (TGMA), emphasizing that his aspiration for success extends beyond winning accolades. During an interview on TV3 NewDay, KiDi discussed his career trajectory and the thematic motivation behind his latest album, "Where Do We Go From Here?"

The album title emerged from a question he habitually ponders following significant achievements in his life and career: "What happens from here? Where do we go from here?" This introspective query resonates with many, as individuals across various pursuits often reflect on this when reaching new milestones.

Reflecting on a decade-long career filled with diverse experiences, KiDi acknowledged that there is no definitive moment when one can declare they have accomplished everything. Regardless of the level of success—whether it be securing Grammys or other prestigious accolades—he remains constantly questioning what comes next. For KiDi, the pursuit of more is an intrinsic drive, and the destination is perpetually embedded within the ongoing journey.

This mindset underscores his determination to continue striving and achieving, regardless of the milestones he reaches.

While KiDi acknowledges the value of awards, he stresses that they are not the primary motivation behind his artistic endeavors. His ultimate goal is personal satisfaction and continuous growth, rather than the pursuit of trophies. He expressed his confidence in reclaiming the Artist of the Year title at the TGMA, stating, "I can and I will win Artist of the Year again.

God’s time is the best, but I can and I will because I'm not doing all of this for the awards. I love them. When they come, I'll go and say, ‘I'll be back,’ and I'll be back and I'll be back." This statement signals KiDi's intention to sustain his momentum and reaffirm his commitment to his craft, as evidenced by his recent projects such as "Babylon," "Signature," and the recently released "Where Do We Go From Here" album.

Additionally, he highlighted an upcoming concert, signaling that the trajectory for another successful year at the TGMA is firmly in place.
