OK, not zero, Tiwa Savage got nominated for artiste of the
year for the forthcoming Headies award which many believe she got simply cause
of her recent deal with ROC Nation. Well same cannot be said for another
international label star, Davido who was completely ignored for this year
award. Before you cry foul, Yemi Alade, MAMA's Female artiste of the year also
barely picked up a nomination in the same artiste of the year category.
So who got the most nominations, well the youngsters who
have been looking for a voice that's who. But not all the youngsters tho, while
Tekno who recently won Song of the year with his 'Duro' track only got one
nomination to his name, the heroic trio of Mavin records, Korede Bello, Di'ja
and Reekado who recently dropped an album didn't get mentioned at all.
Well there is an excuse for Reekky boy as his album dropped
later than the period used for award consideration(June 2015-July 2016), so he
can be pardoned right, Nope!! , excuses are for losers, cause Adekunle Gold who
dropped his album at almost the same time, shares the highest amount of
nominations picked this year with his rumored boo, Simi, Falz, Ycee and Kiss
Daniel. Yup this four youngsters picked up 4 nominations each.
Apart from these younglings in the game, only Darey Alade
and Olamide got 4 other nominations. Even Wizkid escaped with barely 3 and we
can all thank Drake's hit track for that, tho Headies claim its cause of his
hit track, 'Final' Baba Nla'.
Some acts have been complaining about the awards, like
Solidstar and Viktor YBNL(after your boiz carry 10abi), but we all can't deny
the fairness shown by the organisers this year. As for Davido pulling a stunt
at the Headies, it won't happen as non of his goons got picked and we probably
won't hear 'if u want the car comma collect it', except Wizkid comes out to
defend Mr Eazi that goes up against, Tekno, Ycee, Aramide and Humblesmith for
the next rated Car.
