There was something funny about the award,I was waiting to see my guy Dbanj live @ Munich only for MTV to show one kangaroo award presentation by one of these chanel O presenters,it was as if he was given the award in a kitchen.
Re: **~~d'banj Wins Best African Act-mtv European Music Awards :o :o by UncleQuily: 1:57pm On Nov 02, 2007
HEY YOUNG DIGI,

Very good point about MTV's website, not detailing the info on dbanj's win for the African's act.

Good point,     MTV are taking the pissssssssssssssss
Re: **~~d'banj Wins Best African Act-mtv European Music Awards :o :o by Lola4eva(f): 2:00pm On Nov 02, 2007
@yourfather, mtvbase here in naija. I noticed the best african act award was not given on the same stage as all the other awards, it was even sizwe the south african mtv presenter that presented it to him.

@young_digi, i dont understand why mtv is even bothering with this best african act category if it cant be presented on the same stage that the avril lavings, nelly furtado and amy winehouse get their awards. Its real bullshit on mtv's part and im just so pissed, it kinda gives me the feeling that africa's music potential is still not recognised.

Anyways congrats to dbanj all the same, at least he won the awards, just thot why me would have gained more international exposure, u know, anyways njoy all, naija rocks
Re: **~~d'banj Wins Best African Act-mtv European Music Awards :o :o by mrmetoo(m): 2:08pm On Nov 02, 2007
Congratulations to D'Banj!!!! He deserves it. I'm so happy for the Koko master.
Re: **~~d'banj Wins Best African Act-mtv European Music Awards :o :o by youngdigi(m): 2:14pm On Nov 02, 2007
@lola, exactly, they shudnt even bother doing it if they cannot have him out there like that, i mean come on, i went thru the photos and theres not even 1 single photo of any of the african nominees, that is str8 up bullshit as far as i'm concerned, dbanj needs to address that situation publicly, he shudnt just kiss ass and make it look like dey doing him a favor, he deserves every bit of the lights, camera and action

this shit really annoyed me, u dont understand
Re: **~~d'banj Wins Best African Act-mtv European Music Awards :o :o by UncleQuily: 2:15pm On Nov 02, 2007
lola made some good points too, but do we as Africans do any thing about the current situation?

@alexpissu am with you,i strongly believe there is politics behind these awards(my opinion) and also i dont think these mtv guys give out the award cos they truly appreciate african music,only one slot for the whole of africa & the winner recieved it backstage,are they trying to insult us or what?kora award is far better than all these african acts award.

@everyone dissing MTV

I'm definitely not for the back door treatment but the thing is at least they're recognizing African artists. Our music just started to gather major international exposure like never b4. Now the reason the awards are given out that way might be that the present average MTV Europe award viewer might not necessarily be interested yet in that category. Everything in this world is mostly based on self advancement, believe me someone fought for them to create that category and people still need to keep fighting to be paid as much attention as others. We just need to prove we are worth the time slot allocated to us because everything, every minute is about money. Just a couple of yrs ago, for the Grammy awards, the hip hop category was not broadcast, i think it was actually not given out on stage and the artists kinda protested and right now hip hop is the biggest genre in music. There is MTV Base Africa right? I think they need to start they're own awards strictly for African artists.
