rapjunkie:


I think the reason why 'originality' is not on that list is because u must be referring to the version  that featured Mode. Thats what made it a 'hot' track!!!

Very surprised to see Faze cutting Mode out of the video and insisting to push the original 'originality' track where he sacrifices lyrical skill to simply name check on the 2 & 3rd verse.  . . . . . and the video isn't up to scratch either! Lets face it, Modes version is better.

Faze didn't do justice to the beat apart from the first verse and the chorus.

but that is just MY OPINION!!!!

truly we have different opinions cos personally i feel the one wit faze is better. I'm not even talkin bout the video( which was below expectation) or the album, the originality track itself did better than some of the songs here. There must be a certain criteria for this nominaions even bigiano's shayo aint in the best video section,

@dammiecool
ruggedman last album was released in 2006 and that was why he was nominated for the kora award in december 06 which he eventually lost.
now lets look at all the artiste who released that same year.
2face-grass to grace
faze-kolomental
sound sultan- text book
dbanj- run down
modenine -E' Pluribus Unum

all these artiste released the same year ruggedman released his second album and they have all dropped another album, to me ruggedman is a lazy artiste, the only rapper i have ever seen with no mixtape no free song to download, he is a disgrace to who ever see him as a rapper.my 2 cent

Lazy abi the guy no sabi the next step.
Mode said: Imm'a Prove it mic wise you've got nuttin to say
That's the real truth.
The guy should just concentrate on his Sept. 20 thing
Silly Wannabes

Badman ur name speak 4 u.rugged is into music biz jst like 50.many rap star with a album n yet dey command respect.so it is left 4 d guy 2 do with is life,al dat maters is e havin a successful career.which he has,n beside what did he want to do with HHW.do he have to keep repeatin award to show he is gud or any other award he need in nigeria.point black he has nothin 2 prove

Six M.I nominations?? Damn!!!
Anyway, I've got a problem with the best hiphop song category
Why wasn't Area, Anoti, Fast Money Fast Cars, I'm hot or any other rap song nominated??

To answer one question, Why wasn't Asa nominated??
Cus this is flipping Hiphop World Awards not Folk/Soul Awards, c'est finis

Hmmm! This aint the right shit dudes,
I'm sure if everythin is free and fair M.I SHOULD pick nothin less than 4 awards but, why is it that tracks like Anoti, area e.t c r not nominated just like the last post said,
MODE WILL GET THE BEST LYRIcist as usual,
DAGRIN and his crue r sure to get somethin too
On that of rugged, he is yet to drop his album, but i c kno reason why 'talking to u' would be in best rap single and banging won't(both tracks don't belong there),

So why is there a reggae/dance hall category, Einstein?

lol @ einstein

i think asa wasnt nominated cos she won awards at the last edition for the same songs i think she took album of the year

rapjunkie:

So why is there a reggae/dance hall category, Einstein?

Cus Dancehall is a fusion of the whole rasta thing wiv rap.

@ofokasibe
Are you trying to take the piss?
How dare you manipulate my post?

Anyway, if I'm Hot is a mixtape song, didn't I give a list of five other songs?
Besides I swear Saucekid's 'mixtape' song got nominated last year?

asa released in 2007 and was nominated in 2008 why will she be nominated for same album she won award?

@Eldee

Asa won an award in the last edition of HHWA and thus the reason you gave is not applicable.The only germane reason is 'cos she did not release any work in "the year under review"

The tightest noninations have to be the group having "mo hit" _vs "coded tunes".It is definately a tight one.

THE ANGRY RAPJUNKIE REVIEW!!!

1. How can 'not the girl' by Dare be nominated for anything? That song is SOOOOOO RUBBISH!!!!! Only the video is any good
2. Don't people have to buy copies of paradigm shift to hear it before it is nominated?
3 If MI wins best album, then there will be riots in the Eastern states and seccessionist talks will be held in Jos. How can M.I's album be better than Naeto C's album?
4.YQ & Dagrin have to win best collobo over 9ice and tuface. If they don't then we know HHWA is on heavy payola. 'E fi mi le' is a zillion times better than that boring ' street credibilty'
5. If any one else apart from Mode wins 'lyricist on the roll' then Rapjunkie will enter the studio with ruggedman to release 'deathblow, part 419'

This is tongue in cheek right?How on earth is that song a rubbish?If you criticize his vocal range on the song,i MAY agree sorta,as i believe someone with a wider vocal range could have add more vibes to the rendition of the lyrics but knowing Dare's vocal range is not his forte (i feel Ecetra and Cobhams would have done better),even that his negligible as that song is near-perfect i.e 90%.I am sorry but you lost me on that one.

Just thinking out loud,why is Sound Sultan's bush meat not nominated for any award?

Bigiano and Durella's Shayo is also no where to be found

Point of correction! Ruggedman's last album (RUGGEDYBABA) was released in march 2007 and since then he has won Hiphopworld awrds best rap album;Nigeria music awards best rap artiste;Nigerian music video awards for best indigenous concept(RUGGEDYBABA) AND A NOMINATION IN BEST HIPHOP CATEGORY OF 2009 KORA AWARDS BILLED TO HOLD IN APRIL.
PLS seek correct info bofore you post anything.
Besides it is not easy to drop album, rap in particular, every year.Artiste's personal engagements,time,finance,family committments are some of the factors that might not be helpful to release album on a yearly basis.

It is disheartening that Clarence PETERS WAS NOT IN THE BEST VIDEO CAEGORY.The guy is on top of his game.

well i totally agree wit u on this one , but song pass song.! saucekid was the bomb then !

and how do people get nominated for hiphop world , i sense a bit of man know man nomination here , where is shayo bigiano. abi na 2009 song? and where isnt clarence in the director list, the list should be expanded and other categories shld be created.naija hiphop is larger than what this small bunch of guys put out for us! i sense foul play !

B.S . . . As M.I said:

'Too much propaganda
What is good for the gander'

2baba!!!!!!!!!! let's go there!

see the nominations for an album that JUST came out a few months ago. that's called RESPECT within the industry menn!

haters, carry on na

M.i shud go home with nothin less than 3 awards, yes!
For the Lyricist on the roll: i wonder y "Nine" by M9 is the choice.
I was expectin' either "My skin is black" or "The game needs me"
dunno how Nine will do against "Talk about it", tho not that TAI is lyrically
superior to "Nine" but im just lookin at it topical wise.

Owkaiy, im listenin to "Nine" right now,, and im begginin to see Y,
yeaaa, owkaaiiyyyyy, yea, i get it. M9 is pickin that lyricist category again.
And who r those askin Y PS is on the Rap album of the year category?
Which other album shud be there? TAI and PS are both classic albums.
So wat the fuss?
oNe

how to vote

On that of rugged, he is yet to drop his album, but i c kno reason why 'talking to u' would be in best rap single and banging won't(both tracks don't belong there),

Stupid thing to say !!!

Rughead is a useless rapper !!!

Java java java!
How many times i call u ? Stop pushin me. I already abort draggin issues with u since u think its yam, are my not entitled to my opinion? Why won't u let me be.
Back off pls

Our music industry has not been entirely fair on our females.I expected to see more names on the 'best female vocal performance category'.I wonder why this chick, what's her name again , Nena? Didn't get a nomination in that category.Her vocal delivery on that song of hers was unmatchable and my goodness,Where the hell is my guy Eldee! His big boi album shoulda been in da album of the year category?

Wht's the job of a producer?

THE BREAKDOWN
verse:
any topic raised up.i bring the BREAK DOWN/
iT may affect ur artist,but don't HATE NOW/
I'm the best nairaland rapper,sauron is FAKE CLOWN/
Run ur mouth if u like,but lets TAKE VOW/
not to take anything said here to the THIRD PARTY/
I'm not fazed by the way they run the hiphop WORLD PARTY/
it occured before,then it HAPPEN AGAIN/
their unfair judgement is sth that will DAMPEN THEIR FAME/
the boy"faze",to me,deserves a NORMINATION/
but all I see are lyrical lames in DORMINATION/
well,that won't stop him from PACKING HIS PAYS/
mode nine used to work for the editor BACK IN THE DAYS/
so,to the boy mode 9,it's a familly AWARD NIGHT/
nija never emullate what they does in ABROAD RIGHT/
but lyrically,it's between m.i and NINE/
Others in the category are so weak in their LINES/
lord ajasa rhymes so bad,I said it with CON-VICTIONS/
if u say he's norminated,I call that SOME-FICTIONS/
he should dial up my no,i'm the LINES BORROWER/
I wave the wand,turn y'all nairalanders to my RHYMES FOLLOWERS/
hiphop world is so biasd and so LAME/
cos I can see they does nothing but to norminate NAMES/
I just spoke my mind,my MAIN POINT,IF U SPOT ANY/
u can hit me with ur LAME JOINT IF U GOT ANY/

I'm out,

The best vocal performance female category is a huge joke!!! Are we lacking of female artistes who released new stuff this year? Too few nominees in that one. As for the next rated category,what the dickens is djinnee doin there? Is he an upcoming,albumless act? Ayo animashaun should crosscheck these mistakes. As for my predictions: for album of the year,9ice should get it.Best rap album-Talk about it MI
