Bullet is the CEO of Rufftown records
CEO of Rufftown Records, Ricky Nana Agyemang, popularly known as Bullet, has stated that the late Ebony Reigns should still be regarded as the Artiste of the Year for VGMA 2019.
In a post on Instagram on July 21, 2025, Bullet reacted to the recent conversation surrounding the 2019 Vodafone Ghana Music Awards (VGMA), which remains one of the most controversial moments in the history of the awards scheme.
That year, the Artiste of the Year award was not announced due to chaos that broke out on stage during the event.
A disagreement between Stonebwoy and Shatta Wale leading to a scuffle after a gun was pulled in the auditorium.
In a recent interview on Asempa FM, Stonebwoy stated that he believes he should have been declared the winner of that award and called on organisers of the event, Charterhouse, to make it official.
Responding to the renewed conversation, Bullet reminded the public that after the incident in 2019, the VGMA board noted that since the award was not announced, the reigning winner from 2018, Ebony, would still hold the title.
Bullet, who managed Ebony during her career, believes that continuing to argue about the 2019 award only brings back painful memories, especially for those who were affected by the incident.
He called on the public and industry stakeholders to let the matter rest and give Ebony the respect she deserves.
“Why has the 2019 TGMA chaos discussion resurfaced? From what I remember it was mentioned that Ebony still Reigns as the artiste of the year because there was confusion from one team and a GUN was pulled by the other Team. I think we should respect the decision made by the scheme and everybody should go on with their lives.
“This discussion brings back Sour memories and tends to promote violence in the music industry. Do you know the number of people especially kids that are still traumatised by that ‘GUN’ move? That discussion must seize today and forever. Ebony remains the artiste of the year for 2019,” Bullet wrote.
