How wont they sideline u pple.Why wont they give them their award backstage when u keep paying to feature them in ur music.You keep looking desperate u pay millions of dollars just for them to sing 2lines mtcheew.You cant be more than the Americans biko,the only category u wont pass will be best african act,best international blah blah blh.You definitely wont reach video of the year,album of the year and all dose large categories.If they dont treat us with respect then why add d category mtcheew even grammys was it best african act thet nominated femi kuti for? i was up all night waiting for them to cal the winner in d main show only to come to LIB today to read it.

Joint award price, yes but don't fucking mean they gave the trophy to only one person. It was a tie but both received their individual trophy. Na today ????

have some pride Africa said...

Reporting from America,now its going to be long grab your popcorn

Congratz to wizkid and Sakordie for the win,but now wizkid's outfit looked terrible and all sorts of wrong I guess that LA weed confused his head,Sakordie's suit lmao the pants was hanging like uncle johny my neihgbors grandpa.

Now my take on this award,can they just break it into pieces and send out to all the nominees in Africa?what's the point flying 24hours to come collect awards in the darkroom?ok they will say They don't know these African's on Tv in America but how are they going to be known if they don't openly give them the award on tv?a lot of artist perform during the awards we don't even know but we watch because our tv is on or attending the show.Now why not nominate this Africans,put up a dope video they did I am sure some Africans in the audience will scream and hell people will clap when they say clap that is what seat fillers are for.This is just double standards and Africans shouldn't accept the fact that they atleast have the nominations no don't,when American artist go to Africa,people look at them,watch them not because they know them but because they will find out about them thus the internet era we live in.Africans,stand your damn ground,this awards don't come with money,bet awards aint shit any1 can attend what's the point in winning an award and jay z and beyonce and co who could have seen your video or seen/heard you and signed you didn't?During the oscars,international films we will never and have never seen win,the winners come get the price don't they?

Now that was my 2cents,hate it ot love it and wizzy dress better next time and Sakordie sew your coat according to your size

Awards, hate them or love them, as long as they MOTIVATE. Whether this person share dis tin, na una know.
Innumerable carreers are encouraged by Awards. You can be sure, the magazines in America, TV interviews will be lining up. It's a key. Not the house.

I'm not proud of him at all. His music is responsible for turning many young girls into hoes by giving them his approval. End time generation.

Congrats wizzy.

the BET award is the biggest joke of the year. How can you present awards to people behind the glitz and glamour of the event. What is the essence of creating the category…Best International Artiste (Africa) if they will not be recognised or share the same stage with other winners? Please, let us start the mobilisation from here…BET Award is fraud, it promotes segregation and should be treated as such. Our artistes should ignore or boycot next edition if there is no assurance of giving African artistes the recognition they deserve.

Congratz dude. Will see u live dis wednesday, Wizzy in Houston don't miss it if u r in Texas.

Until they perform at the MOBOS and BET..all this awards don't mean jack..maybe Dbanj might break the mould..silly dumb Americans..they apply the same principle to football..
