Reptyle:

HHWA have really raised the standards of award shows in Nigeria and I must give props to the organizers. They have earned it. I know they will keep improving the standard every year.

However, in my opinion, one of the areas they really need to improve on is their selection process. They need to let people understand the criteria for selecting particular nominees for a particular category. Perhaps with that information, it would help someone like me understand why an artist like Mode 9's "Paradigm Shift" is on the list for album of the year, when P Square's "Game is Over" is not. I mean like, nuff respect to Modey for what he is doing for the rap industry in Nigeria. But that album can hardly be said to have enjoyed mainstream success or received as much airplay as P Square's. Perhaps there is something I am not seeing that the organizers saw.

I also think Shank should have made the list for Reggae/Dancehall.

P Square should also have made the list for the Best R'n'B/Pop Album

Timi Dakolo should have made the list for Best Male Vocalist. Maybe he didn't qualify because he only has two singles on air. Darey is a good performer but when it comes to voice, Timi can hold his own anyday.

Just my 2cents sha.

you a joker, psqaure album was nominated last year and why shud they nominate it again?if psqaure album shud be nominated again then maybe asa album shud be nominated as well.

Just because he spent  lots of money on the video and got it on heavy rotation on major tv and radio stations it is suddenly a great song. Ever heard of the word 'payola' my friend?

I wont be surprised if it wins an award either.
