Central to Blakk Rasta’s critique is the pervasive influence of money in award selection processes. He passionately argued that awards should be based on merit, not financial influence. Drawing a parallel with the prestigious Grammy Awards, he urged Ghanaian organizers to adopt a more transparent approach by establishing a board to assess nominees and determine deserving winners. This, he believes, would eliminate the practice of shifting blame onto the public or innocent voters and ensure that awards are bestowed upon truly deserving individuals.
