The award ceremony, held on Saturday November 29 at Accra City Mall, brought together some of the biggest names in music, entertainment, and media. Fred Kyei Mensah, whose work has shaped the careers of numerous artists over the years, was celebrated not only for his exceptional production skills but also for his mentorship of young musicians striving to find their unique voices.

I’ve always believed in giving back and helping the next generation of artists discover themselves and their craft. This award is not just for me, but for every young talent I’ve had the privilege to guide.”

He showed gratitude by sharing this on his Facebook page:

“AT LONG LAST……

“After helping a lot to build their brands for the past 40 years in the Creative Industry in Ghana, it took the initiative of a budding Award Scheme powered by The Elite Entertainment Award to yesterday honor me as a great contributor and helping young talents to discover themselves. This is the FIRST ever recognition in my LIFE by an award organization”.

“To be honest, I was emotional during my acceptance speech and reiterated the need for society to reward good deeds. Our society only eulogizes people after their demise by writing and saying all sorts of lies just to embellish the occasion”.

“If you juxtapose my life in the Creative Industry to that of a tree, my branches have spread in all directions and yielded good fruits. I am grateful for this honor. Even if I die today, my soul will be satisfied that at least, i didn’t work in vain and that, some people recognized my efforts”.

“Ab3 bi b3wu a, na 3so(The Palm tree is never fruitless). IMore laurels ahead. Thanks to all who have contributed to my journey so far”.

“Good beads don’t rattle”.

Over the years, Mensah has been instrumental in producing chart-topping hits and shaping the sound of modern Ghanaian music. His commitment to supporting up-and-coming artists has earned him respect both locally and internationally. Many of today’s successful musicians credit him for providing the guidance and opportunities that launched their careers.
