Baddest DJ Timmy writes open letter to Headies Award organizers

Read the open letter from Baddest DJ Timmy to the Headies Awards organizers below...

"When i wrote my first open letter to Headies on December 29, 2013, the majority opinions i got was that i was correct while others felt i was just an “Attention seeker”. Headies as an award should be credibile and not just over hyped. We have hundreds of award shows every year in Nigeria and they are not as controversial as this one. Headies as an award are still not appreciating certain artiste, producers, entertainers and Dj’s who work 24/7 to make sure they bring out the best. "
They give us the impression that once you are not nominated or you do not win, you have not started your career;This is a BIG LIE. Over the years, All Ayo Animashaun and HipTv family have proven that it is Money over Integrity and that is why he always ignores the choices of majority of Nigerians or could it be that they innocently dont even know what they are doing? I am not here to analyse the faults of headies in full but you can read the other complains on twitter with the hashtag #TheHeadies2015.

Firstly, I noticed your hall was half empty. Your live broadcast that you always brag about had the picture quality of NTA channel 10 and your technical crew were going offline every time things became awkward and they immediately have to switch to “lyrics on the go” to cover up your shame.

I watched BET African awards live and Mtv and i can see a very huge difference in all aspects. You still have a lot to learn. Another disturbing fact is that headies as an award is creating bad blood among colleagues in the Nigerian music scene. Headies is the reason why we have not seen collaborations among certain musicians.

Tell me why Phyno,Davido, Falz, Solidstar and many other music producers and artiste who have been topping charts this year where not recognized? Next Rated Now Of all the categories, this is the only one worth arguing over.

Even though this is not a voting category, I stand by million of Nigerians to say that Lil Kesh or Kiss daniel deserve the award. What are the reasons? Lil Kesh has more hit tracks, Swag, Stage performance, Composure and in the long run Lil Kesh may last longer for years to come. Infact, i will rather invest N10m on Lil kesh career than Reekado’s. That is not to say Reekado is not hardworking or he does not have the talent but lil kesh has that special something.

In fact Reekado still does not have any Hit track to date. Yes !!!!! I say that with all sense of authority. Songs like Corner, Sugar baby, Catapult are NOT hit tracks, they are just popular and they could have gone National but they are NOT hit tracks. Dont confuse a popular song with a Hit track. Let me explain, As a DJ if i dont play “Gbese” “Efejoku” “Shoki” “Reggae Blues” “Woju” “Laye” “Godwin” at any party, i will have loads of people coming to request for them but people dont disturb me if i do not play Reekado banks songs. Do you get the point?

In fact another proof Reekado still does not own a hit track is that an average Nigerian parent who do not follow music still know songs like “Woju” “Bobo”, “Ojuelegba” and “Efejoku”. While i was writing this, i played reekado’s songs to the older generation and they claimed never to have heard them. YBNL VS MAVIN This was actually the most interesting part of the show for those who stayed awake to attend or watch the show.

Now the beef is official and it is part of the bad blood that headies have caused. Olamide was not referring to anybody in particular during Adekunle Gold’s acceptance speech but Don Jazzy had to mention Olamide’s name and the beef became real on twitter with Olamide referring to the Don as a “Bastard”.

Don jazzy should NOT have mentioned Olamide’s name in the first place and saying “he should come and collect the car if he wants”. Now people are taking sides and everyone saw when Olamide threw the microphone away and his beloved “red cup’ he poses with in almost all his music videos. In my own view, It shows how unruly and empty he is intellectually.

Olamide wants to be a Kanye west so bad and he feels he can do anything and go scott free. This was the same guy who cursed Linda Ikeji for reporting a story about his “love child” and claimed it was a rumour till we confirmed it was actually true.

Baba Miliano (Olamide) your alter ego Kanye west started becoming responsible when he gave birth, when will you stop sounding like a thug in your songs and be a role model for those who are watching you? You refer to yourself as a Rapper but i say it to your face that you are now a bloody singer so shut up. I wonder why you where not nominated in the R&B category since you are now a professional singer.

Back to the Mavins, If we look at this from another angle, Reekado needs the car more than Lil kesh since Olamide already bought Kesh a black Range Rover sport around March, 2015. Instead of Jazzy to buy his “children’ (as he refers to his label mates) a car, he will be giving out free recharge card on twitter to buy peoples heart. At least Reekado, Korede and Di’ja will stop going around lagos with Cabs.

It should be noted that Davido is also a major cause of this, he tweeted it some months back that Lil Kesh should pull a “Kanye” on Headies if he does not win. Kesh was probably too timid so his oga OluwaKanye Olamide did the dirty job and refered to that as “Fighting for the poor boy”

In conclusion All Nigerian artiste and producers, do not place your hope on the Headies which should now be referred to as “The Leggings”. Do not say because you where not recognized it means you are not trying, keep doing what you are doing and let the headies keep on doing what they are known for – NONSENSE.. !!!

Do not forget to send your insults and blessing to the writer @Baddestdjtimmy and tell me exactly how you feel. I also need someone to clear this please, Don Jazzy said ” The organizers told him to call Reekado to come…So he left Alibaba’s show” Does that mean he knew Reeky was going to win that category? Cynthia Morgan was absent and i am sure the organisers did not tell Jude Okoye to tell Cynthia Morgann to rush down there.

You be the judge !

This DJ doesn't know what he's talking about.. They shouldn't take Don Jazzy silence for stupidity. I have actually brought out my time to listen to Lil Kesh songs, my fellow LIB, the noise alone couldn't let me concentrate on the actual lyrics.. With due respect, plz nobody should insult my Don Jazzy anymore.. Everyone of them including ReekadoBanks should improve more. I believe the award didn't even go to the rightful artist. That's my take on this matter.

gentle said...

Anon 11.25...you took the words right out of my lips. At least some sensible human beings are still here. There is a huge difference between a party song, and soulful quiet music. Reekado deserves the award for his katapult music...I rather listen to that than listen to trash music about weed,boobs and ass. It's not Every1 that street music appeals to.

Truth be told ... Olamide messed up everything, this things happen everywhere its not the 1st .. the fact that reekado's name is among the next rated means he has the potentials to win, so wtf is wrong with yall talking trash, personally i dont even like lil kesh's songs, they are too vulgar for my liking, olamide messed himself up, its a national disgrace, he sounded like an omo ale jati jati, in front of dignitaries and elders olamide had the audacity to do such and yall are saying he didnt mention names really? He didnt just insult mavins .. he insulted everybody seated in that auditorium,the organisers and also himself, if olamide had an atom of respect there are other ways to channel ur greviances, this is totally wrong and uncalled for and i think he deserves what he got

Illiteracy is a disease... I ofcourse dance to Lil kesh's songs but will definitely vote for Reek or Kiss... Ifor you don't play Adele's "hello" in as a dj will people rush requesting for it?? Truth is kesh's songs are noise to some people like me...

Empress said...

How will Olamide feel if Lil Kesh had won and Don Jazzy came out to rant like he did for Reekado Banks. People will rush out and say it's because it's Don Jazzy. What Olamide did was insulting and disrespectful to Reekado Banks and ofcourse Don Jazzy. Truth is there are so many out there who would rather pick Reekado to even Olamide himself... The truth....

DJ timmy... or what do u call urself? to me kiss daniel no even reach reekado banks, when we are talking of next rated, its not by 1 or 2 singles u dropped, i bet u know this? kiss only dropped woju and laye that make wave, though i agree that lil kesh deserve the award, but headies said its by vote, not by there own selection, beside, the vote has been cast some months back, so u dont judge base on the recent singles they dropped, u said dija and reeky do take cab, ave u seen them on the road? guess u re kidding aittt..? a whole Glo ambassador? before he even became an ambassador, i guess u were asleep when he built an house for hi parent... bro.. u made some point wey make sense.. buh some mumu point there dere too.. the both side messed up.... olamide with his tout attitude and egbon self wey no respect himself.. it is well...

Objective write up.

The thing is someone must lose in a competition. Who deserves to win is also subjective.

Like you said, even if you don't win, keep doing your thing.

Cynthia did not come, does it mean she knew she'd not win?

Olamide, like you said should grow up! And be a role model. You cannot be a boy forever.

All this thug life does not pay!

Anonymous said...

Musically, till tomorrow I will prefer Reekado to Lil Kesh! My supposed DJ who should know more about music has displayed his ignorance! How do you compare good music and noise! If a street noise or sound is popular and gets requested hasn't made it a good song! I had prefer Koredo bello to win because in my opinion he had the best and most popular song of the year! Even my mama sabi the song and can sing all, my pastor's wife even sabi the song! Godwin transcends all boundaries, age groups and I bet it will be a chorus in the churches and will last forever.

If Olamide had any ounce of respect for Don Jazzy, he'd have kept his ogogoro mouth shut but he didn't, he couldn't... Now, who's apologizing? If he pulls dat Kanye wannabe stunt ever again,... Mtchww! Make I no spit fire here. His name can be called a zillion times and he can do no more dan a dead rat.

Anonymous said...

I don't blame Timmy for this comment because he's just a dj. Dj only promoteb dance tracks irregargless of the content. Many Nigerian musicians sing fuji, apala, juju and high life in the name of hip/hop & rnb and this disgust me. Lil kesh and his YBNL crew are such influence and I won't compare what they sing as music in any way. As a matter of fact, headies shoul ban Olamide from headies for 4 season. He feels like god because many Nigerians appreciate the shit he's giving them. With time, the tide will turn and Nigerian will embrace nothing but good music. That's my message for Nigeria

Unknown said...

@djtimmy thank u for hitting d nail on d head nd for not taking sides.to my own view both of them were wrong.am a fan of d both of them nd I love them d same buh dis new year gift they gimme hen e pass me oh.u said ppl prefer to listen to Lil kesh in clubs nd all yea u re right.wat abt at home or for ur kids nd family which of d 2 will u buy. Also I want to ask all of u taking dis matter as if na una salary job,which of una vote nd who una vote for?mayb reekado has better fans dan kesh u don't know.se na agbero wan go de dial code to vote.its a new year e sud sign songs dat even my mom can vote for

And yes Reekado doesn't have any hit song buh i'll choose his talent over lil kesh's anyday!

Oga DJ, Stfu! Kesh has no hit songs... Yeah I said it. And Reekado has no hit tracks either. That award should have been between Korredo Bello and Kiss Daniel... simple! As for Don Jazzy response, I concur with his reaction. You don't t need to call one's names to be able to insult him. Olamide action was disrespectful to the organisers and everyone nominated in that category. Who is Olamide? few hits and we can't hear word... forming gangster. Who was he when we had DAGRIN? Now he claims he owns mainland? For ur mind.

As long as it was not a voted category anything goes. Take example from the grammy's. It is not usually artists you expect to win or that sold the most hit that win. Olamide's tantrum was very rude & i think Don Jazzy responded maturely by not only mixing words, but calling him out like artists do each other, but the rants followed.

efe said...

Is so funny how we analyse tins in dis country, in my own opinion olamide did wrong my using those vulgar words on national tv,if not fighting 4 his artist to me is not bad,like he his entitled to his opinion then Don jazzy wow that was too much na,he should have just come to the stage and defend his "child" too like reekado bankz is our next rated Tanx to d fans and we don't care about other persons opinion,not asking olamide to come collect the car.Nigerians will say he shouldn't have isulted him on twitter,trust me if u were in his shoes u would do same.less I forget the award is next rated not best lyrics or best inspirational lyrics,so the issue of Lil kesh using vulgar words in his song should not be an issue here.I sw**r most of u still dance to dis vulgar songs wen the are been played in clubs,party etc pls not all olamide's songs bad u have the likes of Melo melo,anifowose,yemi my lover etc

I strongly think both of them were puerile in their actions. it was stupid and an act of morose for Olamide to have displayed such a tantrum and vituperation on stage where thousands or if not millions of people are watching. what should fans tell of his reputation? his action really depicted him as an agbero (motor park tout)and i am sorry for all the brand inducements. what is in that SUV that they are want to die on? FOr God sake if Olamide needed an SUV that badly for Lil Kesh if he can not buy one for him he should have solicited for funds from friends and fans. i am sure their #5, #10 will make up.On the other hand, Don JAzzy was also stupid to have called his name on stage.It shows Don is not mature and cant even manage a family. Anyway maybe he knows this already and the hysteria has kept him from finding a woman. finally for Don to say the management of Headies told him to called Banky from a show show that there is something Don and the organizers of Headies are not telling us.

I hardly comment on issues like this.but dj timmy. You have said it all.The 3 parties involved did mistakes in the whole saga,but headies been the one cordinating it and unfortunately the first to initiate the mistake have a role to play in correcting it.

Thanks for being sincere Djjimmyjatt @ least you didn't take sides you trashed the issues that needed to be sorted

Unknown said...

After all your many comments, I will like to add that our Artists should learn to tolerate & discipline themselves cos they are giving us their fans wrong impression abt themselves. We make them the stars they have become. If we chose not to listen and regard them, they seize to exist and their talents will blow under the dust. Pls Linda, kindly inform YBNL & MARVIN Boss to let go & keep the fun so as to uphold integrity &. Unity.

Hmmm the truth is both parties acted based on their emotions, and we all know what happens when some one is angry, it takes the grace of God to say the right words when angered, I believe both parties re not happy about the outcome of all dis issues, I just pray and hope olamide has the younger to don, he and his crew shld apologies not just to his fans but to don as well, likewise don jazzy he too shld apologies nd let all dis go, is too early in a year to start a war, most especially cos of the so call children they re fighting for, who still have a long way to go in their career, make them no kill the children career before it even take off abeg, linda post o

.........Not Only Did The YBNL Genius Dealt With The Mavin's Pillar Mi BRos Don J, But Also Noticed That Don Jazzy Lacked English Proficiency! Olamide, Threw What Any Linguist Would Call As 'Implying Or Intended Meaning. More Of An Indirect Speech. Thus, Causing DOn Jay To Highlight His Pitfalls In Understanding English As A Language,By, uttering A More Direct Feedback At The Bobo Crooner, Saying : "Egbon Olamide"....... Which Is Totally Unacceptable With The Rules Of What To Imply Will Define In English As A Language.
The Mavin, Didn't Show True Definition Of What The Label Name Literally Means.
Conclusively, That, Has Been Earning Olamide More Credits In Respect To This Saga ! I Urge You Both To Make Reference To The Motto In The Nigeria Coat Of Arm: Unity And Faith, Peace And Progress.

Guy you on are point. However, note that hits do not necessarily guarantee awards. Two of the best rappers of our time, Tupac and Notorious BIG never won Grammy Award even though they had monster hits upon monster hits. Every award has its criterion used in selecting winners.

All you shouting kesh deserved the award,how many of una vote? In my opinion, everyone in that category deserved the award except lil kesh. For those of you that have strict parents, would you rather play/sing Lil kesh's songs in front of them or reekado's. Forget strict sef,my mum isn't strict but its still somehow to sing kesh's songs in front of her. Comparing Adele to Nicki isn't about song genre. It's just there are different mood/places for every song.And different songs with the kind of people dey attract. I even gave up on the Lil kesh's so called fans when one commented on a post on IG and said he/she doesnt know why Timi Dakolo won because noone listens to his kind of songs. Y'all are just sore losers and not everyone can win. Next time you want to rant about an artiste not winning, make sure you voted for him/her.

Who was on allelu by Wale? REEKADOBANKS.
Who was on Nyedilo by Edem?
REEKADOBANKS
These re somgs outside nigeria yeah and so many nigerian songs

So we all prefer songs that says the same thing i went to shoprite and saw aunty kemi and i want to touch yansh and squeeze yansh.

The writer of this article is a c*nt.

First, this award category is won by the highest number of votes. I'm a Nigerian resident in the US and some how i voted for Recardo Banks. How did i know about him? Because he had huge internet presence. Infact Banks is very active on Instagram and solicited for fans to vote for him. That was how i voted.....and right now i checked the activity of Recardo Banks and lil kesh on social media and i still discovered that Banks had more followers than Lil Kesh. How then can we expect Kesh to win the "Next Rated"?

Secondly, you are a lunatic for insisting that Headies Award has lost it's values. It has not. Rather the value lost is the junk called music spewed out by Nigerian Artists. Nigerian artists must know that music is not about staying in Ajegunle and being a local champion. If people don't relate to what you are saying you are finished. To that effect, i have to say that YNBL should refine a lil and stop the noise they call music. You can tell your street story without the noise. It doesn't appeal to everyone.

Thirdly, You should clap for yourself! Supporting someone who came on stage, insulted everyone, told the winner of the award how he was undeserving (belittling him and the others), then dropped the mic on stage and left. Now let me tell you why Kanye West got away with it.....It was because Taylor Swift was just a 19yr old civil country musician. Even Lady Gaga's boss said that had Kanye West done that to Gaga, he would have walked up to that stage and punched him on the face. Also imagine that Kanye West did it to 50 cents or any of his rap colleagues. It would have been war. What i'm saying is that Olamide was lucky not to be punched on the face or embarrassed by a hot tempered person. What he did, is ATROCIOUS! VERY ATROCIOUS. And very wrong! Get it in and say it....tell him to change or he's not gonna be anyone.

Fourthly, i read the hatred in Olamide posts. All i understood was that the hatred for Don Jazzy is much! Because truth be told he represents everything good about the evolving music in Nigeria. I don't care whether he appears humble, it's not a crime to appear humble. Why is Olamide angry about Don Jazzy not writing music himself? How many songs do top musicians write? And perhaps he is currently the reference point....I say that because when i mentioned Nigerian music to my white friend, the first music he mention was Eminado and Aye. More so, Marvins music contents are varied. From the junks (he produces junks sometimes) to the sublime. This i believe will keep them head and shoulders above YNBL.

Finally, i still don't understand what your write up is about. But then i'm saddened that in Nigeria there's the mentality of people feeling being cheated. And i tell the stupid musicians who don't understand the power of the internet to embrace it and stop being pathetic thugs Or King of Mainland. Solicit for vote...Celebrities in US do it! In their blogs, FB, twitter and Instagram. That is how it should be done. Don't stay in Ojota and feel you deserve an award when your fans didn't vote you or aren't even aware that you are nominated for an award. It takes more than listening to someone's music or dancing to them to be a fan. Being a fan is a dedication. And YNBL should learn that and stop complaining.

YES...and then thank you for making Recardo Banks popular! I loved all his tracks and my goofy roommate can't stop listening to him either. Let me remind you that the humiliation of Kanye west skyrocketed Taylor Swift. She is the biggest thing in the US right now...her concerts are the most sold out. And her earnings in the last 3 years dwarfs that of Kanye and she's barely 25years. Olamide should use his tongue to count his teeth. I have spoken. Keep making hits like Shakiti Bobo and stop whining like a thug. The era of people listening to thugs are far gone in the music industry.
