ReplyDeleteLinda no worry, this one no go fit touch u Joor..
ReplyDeleteWell, don't really know how they do it weda its by voting or selection but I think its not only him cos I can't find OGA BOSS in that list not to talk other artist. And this his name (boy) is having effect on his behavior.
ReplyDeletepele boss.
ReplyDeleteBurna boy has talent. BUT! Right now his singing rubbish! When he newly came out I had this hug crush on him n his music but now; "not interested smiley"
ReplyDeleteHuh? Oc Ukeje kwa???? Kene bu kwa God's grace. ...#Godwin

ReplyDeleteDis burna boy is so full of himself. He hasnt released anything useful since his first album. One album celebrity feeling funky.
The list is good.. Nigerian music is going places.. Thumbs up guys👍..

ReplyDeleteOC Ukeje ke? They definitely paid for that nomination. Personality of the year Ke? Na wa o, no way!
ReplyDeleteNo be his name dey for best collabo ...: all join
ReplyDeleteTruth be told, he has been putting in work but none seem to cut it anymore like his first set of songs, nonetheless, he got an endorsement deal amongst other things, he should stop whining, grow up and be grateful for his many blessings! some artistes will kill to be in his shoes!
ReplyDeleteHin dey mad? Wetin he sing?
ReplyDeleteThat is quite unfortunate because the some of the artist nominated make noise not music, this is a few of the guys in the industry who still haven't let fame and fortune smother their talents. So in other words, it seems the judges at MAMA know little about music but loads about noise.
ReplyDeleteCongratulation burna boy, you deserve this nomination..
ReplyDeleteSame thing happened last year @ that lousy hiphop awards he didn't get anything... They are making it too obvious that he has pissed the wrong or should i say Right people off... But arent artists ment to be awarded by their talent and not their attitude???
ReplyDeleteDis shit is getting boring every year...How come Burna won't be on the categories.....No reggae dance hall awards ??? Fuck MTV
ReplyDeleteHe deserves to be nominated but oh well...
ReplyDeleteOKORO UPGRADED**
And 2baba is missing too
ReplyDeleteBetter luck next time bro
ReplyDeleteWetin burna boy dey sing wey hin wan collect award. Mtcheeeew
ReplyDeleteThey norminated well, they were all put in place.
ReplyDeleteLinda why are you using style to beg him not to beat you up ??? You dey fear ???
ReplyDeleteThe list is scandalous.....don't expect great from Nigerian artist....SA z looking fine.
ReplyDeleteBut at least his name came up in best collabo. I think he shd just take what he can get and leave. The industry belongs to no one. He should remember that he was once a 'nobody' so it's a bit preposterous to start having this sense of entitlement.
ReplyDeleteBurna boy is a sulking kid. Not a fan!
ReplyDeleteLinda cogitate
Best collaboration Aka - all eyes on me featuring Burna boy. He was nominated as well unless he's bitching about not being nominated for his song and not a feature. People become multiple Grammy award winners from features eg Jay-z and Kanye West Grammy's most were featuring them.
ReplyDeleteLooks like we have a home grown Kanye West complete with attitude on our hands! Lol Never mind Burna boy we still love you
ReplyDeleteWow! Dis is great, and cool. I wish all d nominee's d best thereof in life. Thumbs up, and more power to their elbows.
ReplyDeleteAfter going through the nomination list I understand burna's pain, he is far better than most things nominated there.
ReplyDeleteThis is lovely
ReplyDeleteHe's a great artist but I fink d oda artists nominated r few steps ahead of him
ReplyDeleteEeeeeeeeeyah, sorry. Better luck next time. Linda take note!
ReplyDeleteU want to be Nominated with "Yawa De"? When u make music u will be nominated.
ReplyDeleteDear Burna Boy you don't need an award to show that you are Good. 2pac don't have a Grammy. Biggi don't have a Grammy Snoop Dogg don't have a Grammy e.t.c. Nigga you are Good fuck these awards
ReplyDeleteNo be his name dey for best collabo
ReplyDeleteSad....:hehehe...so is lyf...wz xpectin tiwas 'my darlin' in video of d year sha
ReplyDeleteNice one sha team #obo et #yemialade
ReplyDeleteit is well.............
Its a pity for him sha
ReplyDeleteMaybe next year
you'll be there
Relax. The nominations will come.
ReplyDeleteBut he was nominated na - Best collaboration
ReplyDeleteHe should take a chill pill. He's got zero talent
ReplyDeleteMy thoughts exactly
DeleteBurna Boy is one of a kind and talented. Love his songs
ReplyDeleteWhich kin english you dey speak, burnaboy!
ReplyDeleteNo don forget say na niaja you dey?
all this keeping it real for all yor, imma do dis imma do dat dont work here.
Nobody dey speak dat kin thing for here.
It amazes me that MAMA awards is now rubbish
ReplyDeleteOk
ReplyDeleteWho dash monkey banana. They only nominate musicians, bunaboy is not a musician na. Abeg next page joooo.
ReplyDeleteWhere is M.I. Nonsense Award
ReplyDeleteAll d best 2 d nominees....why Is burna boy complaining?? I don't even know what he is singing, not a fan
ReplyDeleteYes he threatens because bloggers just post without investigating the story!
ReplyDeleteHow can M.I and Reminisce not be in the Best hip hop category? Foolish people.
ReplyDeleteBurna BOY is a good artist but abeg threatening to beat up a human being, everyone has a right to their opinion, if you don't agree with what the blogger posted come out and rectify it, that's what Terry-G did, which one is you will beat. abeg joor, these bloggers even aid your careers in some way too.
ReplyDeleteIt's a pity,seems they keep frustrating my Burna Boy.
ReplyDeleteBurna Boy is someone with great talent....He learning from Davido would just make him more of a tout....Eating Poundo in a video..
ReplyDeleteWhat about burna boy, that dude gats alot of dopes songs, also Mr2kay ft cynthia morgan n seyi shay......
