doesn't make it any less shitty. For once, they should come up with a list to shock me. You'll see the winners, at least 98% will be Yoruba. Won't even lose sleep waiting up for their mediocre award like last year

I fail to agree with your stance respectfully. Lagos is the base for Entertainment in Nigeria.Lagos is basically a Yoruba populated state.

Now to get your song blown well enough,one has to be in Lagos ( most times). So an artiste has to put Yoruba in d song doesn't necessary mean he is Yoruba .Because they sing Yoruba songs or use Yoruba doesn't make them Yoruba,u will be surprised that half of this people are even igbos and south south who have lived in Lagos for years and adapted. Some might even change names.

Elparaiso:

Medio-gini? Which phyno's song do you hear over the radio? Apart from Ladi and nme nme that were popular for a while. None comes to mind. By the way, the people you call local are the ones we listen to over here. Only die hard Ibo men listen to phyno. Don't get me wrong, I love phyno. Any time, any day. But this year was not his at all.

you're the only one going about spreading stewpid talk that this year was not Phyno's year. Do you think this year is the only year under review? So, MTV recognised Phyno enough to nominate him, but this mediocre Yoruba award wants to say otherwise? HipTV is yet to prove me wrong on how biased they are

airmark:


What happens to you my dear? Why are you sounding tribalistic ? This year's list has been a great one well-drawn. It may not be perfect but the lows are negligible. Still looking for sean tizzle on the list as you wrongly claimed.

exactly. Last year ,wizkid won nothing and had only one nomination .In fact!phyno ,illbliss ,ugovinna made the list oo

Phyno had a poor year according to you.

How did he get nominated in the Best Hip Hop Artist Category in this Year's MTV award?

MrsPhyno:
If Phyno isn't on this list then it's trash

who is talking about putting Yoruba in a song? I'm talking about dashing Yoruba artistes awards, if it was by singing in Yoruba, Burna would've gotten an award. So you agree that Headies is a 'regional' award, hence your fixation on location. You may argue about it, which is expected cuz I doubt you're using an unbiased eye, but truth remains truth. It's a mediocre, Yoruba award

You nailed it. Bez, psquare, praiz, Timi dakolo, cobhams, Bez, MI, solid star, masterkraft are all non-yorubas nominated but safarigirl has already made up her mind to tarnish hip tv image. So unfortunate.

You got my point but there's still something you missing ma. The fact remains Headies award Yoruba artistes.That is the plain truth.

Now what am saying is that award Yoruba artistes most times because Yoruba artistes are the most successful.The reason for the success of Yoruba artistes is because most are based in Lagos.It appeals to the Yoruba populated Lagos and once it blows in Lagos.it blows in Nigeria.

What am saying basically is that,there are many talented artists from other tribes like Igbo,Hausa.But d thing is they fail to relocate to the base.which is Lagos.They fail to do songs that appeals to Yoruba infested Lagos state.Once the lagosians don't know your song ,days the end.

So how many lagosians hear wat Phyno says.?? If not for collabos with Olamide and lil kesh. That's y Artists need to realise that no matter how indigenous you are,be u IBO or any tribe,u can't make it without a lil sumfin for Yoruba fans including getting nominations and awards mostly collated by Yoruba music critics.

This list is trash.....
Where is pray for me by darey Art alade?

I have to sound tribalistic cuz Headies is a tribalistic award. This isn't the first time we're seeing them do this. I've said nothing since, but anyone who isn't Yoruba can see the clear bias. Imagine Mode9 on rap album of the year and Phyno isn't, the pattern is wrong. Wait till the winners come out, it will be the same old thing. I'll need a non-Yoruba person to defend this so I'm sure there's no bias

oh, adding ill bliss must make it all better, we're so glad ill bliss who had a worse year than Phyno is there to make up the numbers. If a list was released with Igbo artistes dominating and Vector getting a nomination, I'm very sure it would raise a brow, especially if it's consistently so

The question you should ask yourself is, did phyno release an album within the year under review? The answer is No. Last year edition his album was nominated but could nt win or do you want headies to nominate him again? meanwhile he still won 2 awards last year ahead of your so-called Yoruba artistes. It's very unfair to throw tribal shots at them recklessly. His man of the year track won award too in 2013, so whats your point?

which 2 awards did he win last year? If their awards weren't tribal based, maybe nobody would accuse them.
