keep your sorry to yourself,you dont have to drop a comment if you dont have better thing to say you. Or maybe your tv has reached its elastic limit.

May lack of exposure not kill us in Africa since illiteracy is a disease. Many famous American stars have never won a Grammy but were nominated. Did they hang a transformer? No!

Femi is very backward indeed. I never knew he was so "bush". To be nominated is a great honour. Can somebody tell him that?

Anike said...

He deserves it abeg I was in jss1 wen he got his first nomination.... Plus its not like does dt win it re more popular or we know dem quite well in naija tooooo..... ps nobody shld start givin me stats of previous winners in dt category, wen I say know dem I don't mean u nd ur nuclear family
