SaintChicago Wins Big at HMB-Upper East Music Awards with Hit Single ‘Ba Na Zoe’

Rising Ghanaian songstress SaintChicago, born Agambila Angel, emerged victorious at the 2024 Happy Man Bitters-Upper East Music Awards. Her chart-topping single, Ba Na Zoe, was crowned “Most Popular Song of the Year” during the awards ceremony held at the GNAT Hall in Bolgatanga on January 11, 2025.
The young star triumphed over a competitive field, beating notable acts including Rockcity Bongo (Ninpeela), Fasetwo (Kassena Boys), Timorhino (Buyar Hamza), FLAMEBWOY, Nondambii, Razzy Yommie (My Own), Showbowy (Tigaria), and Pandy Bobby (Wana Kem).
Released on August 24, 2024, along with a captivating visualizer, Ba Na Zoe quickly gained traction, becoming a street anthem in the Upper East Region and beyond. The song’s relatable theme resonates with listeners, humorously narrating the story of men pursuing women without readiness to handle the “bills” that come with relationships. True to its title, Ba Na Zoe—which translates to “they will run”—depicts how these men often flee when faced with responsibilities.
SaintChicago expressed her gratitude to her fans, team, and the organizers of the HMB-Upper East Music Awards for recognizing her efforts. She stated, “This award is for everyone who believed in me and danced to my song. Ba Na Zoe is a story for the people, and I’m glad it has made an impact.”
The 2024 Happy Man Bitters-Upper East Music Awards was a memorable evening, celebrating the region’s rich musical talent and creativity. For SaintChicago, this accolade solidifies her rising influence in Ghana’s music scene, and fans eagerly anticipate her next move.
