CELEBRITY PROFILE: All About The Dynamic Presenter, GRANDMASTER MURPHY.
An astute Tv and Radio presenter & Entrepreneur in the Ashanti Region, Nana Kwasi Boateng Murphy known in radiobiz as Grandmaster Murphy is a product of Shaw Academy University – South Africa with Advanced Diploma in Journalism & Diploma in Digital Marketing and a DIPLOMA holder from IPMC who pursed systems engineering programme and graduated in 2009.
DJ Murphy’s radio journey started in 2008 with Asante Mampong based Mighty FM before joining Sunyani Technical University Campus-based, Parrot in 2012.
He moved to Storm FM as the Mid-morning and Entertainment show host and later poached by Samson Deen-owned Metro Sunyani also to host the Drive Time and entertainment shows. After successful spell with Metro FM, he rejoined Storm FM as the Mid-Morning and entertainment show host as well as the Traffic Manger and Head of IT at the Tony Bennett-owned radio station.
However, the award-winning radio presenter went on a radio break to further his education outside the shores of the country, precisely at the Shaw Academy University in South Africa – where he obtained Advanced Diploma in Journalism and Diploma in Digital Marketing and upon his return from schooling, he declined to rejoin to Storm FM.
Although one would say “Grandmaster” is in an entirely new radio environment but I can confidently tell you that is not the reality. The radio presenter however enters the Oseikrom’s radio market shoulder high since he won the 2016/2017 best mid-morning show host and a 2-time best entertainment show host in the Brong Ahafo Region with which he was crowned at the 2016/2017 edition of the Foklex Media Awards which took place at the Golden Tulip Kumasi City Hotel on April 2, 2017.
In 2019, Grandmaster Murphy won the Entertainment Show Host of the Year at the FOKLEX Media Awards during his time with Bohye FM and Kumawwod Tv. A year under the line, he earned another nominations with his new station, Todays Radio in the category of Entertainment Program Host (Ashanti Region).
In November 2019, he was honoured with a Golden Award as Young Living Legend of the year by Brong Ahafo Music Festival (BAMA).
Murphy has maintained his bragging rights as an award winner for some years now. From Sunyani-based Storm FM to Bohye FM/Kumawwod Tv in Kumasi and to Ejura based Todays Radio/Tv, he has been able to make great incursions. Wining the Best Dj of the year and Entertainment Host of the year at the 2nd Best House Entertainment Awards with Todays Radio, much is expected from Grandmaster Murphy in every year under review.
In December 2020, Murphy won 🏅 Radio & Tv Entertainment Show of the year in Ashanti Region a program held at KNUST.
3DEvents Management at GNAT Hall of Fame Accra, adjourned Grandmaster as National Young Achiever in Journalism 2021.
