Following her nomination in the category of Best Female Vocal Performer at this year’s Ghana Music Awards, which will take place on Saturday, June 1 at the Grand Arena of the Accra International Conference Centre (AICC), gospel singer Queendalyn Yurglee is ecstatic.
The singer’s achievement holds great significance as she is making her first appearance as a nominee at the esteemed awards ceremony, which is widely recognized as the most anticipated event in Ghana’s entertainment calendar.
Although Queendalyn is thrilled with her achievement, she still has to defeat Adina, Abiana, Niella, Titi Owusu, and Lordina The Soprano—all formidable opponents for the title.
Niella, a gospel singer, is now the TGMA Best Female Vocal Performer. Adina took home the award in 2018, however Abiana won the title in 2021.
But Queendalyn is unafraid of her formidable rivals. She expressed her excitement to Graphic Showbiz that she will be taking home the Best Female Vocal Performer trophy on TGMA night.

“I respect everyone in the category and I believe they are all capable of winning the title so I’m a potential winner as well.
“Niella was disregarded when she was nominated for the category last year because some people claimed they didn’t know her but at the end of the day, she emerged winner. Being nominated means you are 50 percent a winner so I’m very positive about my chances,” she said.
Queendalyn, also known as Arkbearer, published an EP in August of last year called The Birth. This EP is consistent with her mission to disseminate the good news of God’s salvation and the practical applications of the Holy Spirit to the Christian faith.
The five songs on the EP which dropped on Sunday, August 6, are Wotim Ho Daa(You remain the same), Honhom Kronkron, Hold My Hands, Izuru( which means you deserve praise in Igbo) featuring Mike Aremu and Come and See featuring Akesse Brempong.
Wotim Ho Daa, Honhom Kronkron, Hold My Hands and Izuru were recorded by Mordecai, and mixed and mastered by music producer, Francis Osei. While Come and See was produced by LaxioBeats.
