Yungsix joins a long list of artistes who have found the 201 Headies nominations list unsatisfactory.

Yung6ix wants some Respek on his name! The release of the Headies awards nomination list has been trailed with controversies, as many have found it unsatisfactory.
Yung6ix leads the pack, as he called out the organisers of the awards show, accusing them of tribalism.
The Warri rapper is definitely unhappy with the fact that he got no nominations, despite his musical efforts throughout the year.
Yung6ix took to Twitter, to bare his mind on the issue.
The 26-year-old argued that the organisers have intentionally overlooked his efforts, which he attributes to tribalism.
Yung6ix is also convinced that his hit single, ‘Respek On My Name’ deserved to be nominated in the ‘Best Rap Single’ category.
According to him, “‘Respek On My Name’ is the Biggest Hip Hop record this year #jstknw.”
Yung6ix is not alone in his displeasure but has been the first to voice his concerns publicly.

Sunexy:
Lolz...even this 1 dey complain

Dnt worry some nigerians will drink panadol for ur headache

you self look at the full headies nominees above and tell me if its right

I mean there were many non-yoruba hits from last year to today,they never made the list

why?

#istandwithyungsix

Headies is an indigenous awards for yorubas, stupid award!

I am surprise pasuma wasn't nominated for best RnB

It's fact.! 'For Example' was a bad jam. And it's meant to be nominated for collabo of the year. I wonder what solidstar is doing there

He has always been underrated so no be new thing.

Headies is trash.

warris is dis one saying..... cos am nt understanding

Will he be the one to praise himself of pple? Idiot

Tribalism how ...all these small guys when they don't win that is how they jump to conclusions

Why should a reputable award base on tribalism let him think before spitting rubbish out
