2022 Headies Awards: My honest review - Part 3

 

Gutted he didn't win artiste of the year at the 2022 Headies awards but he can take pride in the songwriter of the year award he won. Congratulations Adekunle Kosoko. (Photo credit: My photo gallery)

This is the final part of my Headies Awards reviews I promise. I’ll start this with the songwriter of the year, forget nonsense, Adekunle Gold deserves it and it’s not even sentiment; who else would you have handed it to? Brymo? Fireboy? Omah Lay? Please!

TG Omori won the Music Video of the year award for Champion; he was nominated for two different projects and for his exploits so far, no one else comes close so no issues. Flavour’s Doings won the alternative song of the year, I have my reservations but let’s keep it moving.

I change my mind, are we legit glorifying nonsense? You come tomorrow to wonder why people commit atrocities yet celebrate people that promote those vices through their creative works, na una know tho. A-Q’s Last Chapter won Lyricist of the year, hmmm… over Vector and Jesse Jagz? Na ment?

Male Artiste of the year went to Burna Boy, quite understandable and without any fuss, he can have it even tho I’d have loved it to go to Adekunle Gold, dude had a monster year but it’s fine. Is it fine? Okay… it’s fine, before it looks like a personal vendetta. It’s fine.

If Tems didn’t win R&B Album of the year, I’d have petitioned Headies, so let’s leave that as it is. Davido won digital artiste of the year LOL, this looks compensatory but I’m not complaining. In fact, I will drink to that, dude deserves all the credits for his hard work.

I’m not a big fan of Dunsi Oyekan, feel free to throw your stones and watch me dodge them LOL, you think they call me Rambo for nothing? How will you give Kcee the award of inspirational single over a whole Dunsi Oyekan? Are you people whining us? Looks like y’all just want to annoy the God that guy aggressively worships.

Afro Pop Single went to Peru by Fireboy, I see how they decided to spread things so no one complains; Made In Lagos won Afro Pop Album of the year while Davido won humanitarian of the year, water is wet right? I will never understand how Sarz won producer of the year, has to be a joke because the song he was credited for was Monalisa… Nonsense.

Tiwa Savage as the female artiste of the year rounds up my review, I can’t fault that but I also won’t bat an eyelid if they had handed it to Nini, Simi or Teni that were all nominated. Looking forward to the next Headies and I hope they realize the bloody mistake of taking it abroad.

If her name is Precious, you're single

People will leave you wondering if you're abnormal, omo iya mi, ma fo, na dem be the problem not you. Oya stay jiggy make we enter road. (Photo credit: Google)   “When you’re losing a tug of war to a tiger, release the rope before it gets to your arm; you can always get another rope, of course, except if you want prosthetics; you don’t want another arm.” - Ancient Chinese proverb remixed by Rambo. 2023 taught me a lot, and one of them is this: “If that person looks too good to be true, don’t force it; the person is certainly a fraud." And this rings true for everything. Whether living or non-living, don’t force it; it’s too good to be true. I was going to write about Precious, but I realized it’s a waste of time. Someone would text or call to tell me I’m pained, and it would get me emotional. I’d rather leave it as it is and sweep it under the rug like I always do. No worries on this one. Lesson number 1 from 2023: Tomorrow isn’t promised! See, a day before my mother passed

One careless night

The antelope is badly wounded right in front of the hunter, it can live again, only if the guardian angel smiles again... (Photo credit: Geo Wild) I randomly remember how my mom forced Mount Zion movies on me that year, but after the incident of the other day, one famous movie of those folks rings true in my head. One careless night. Just so we’re clear, no matter how hard you try, you’ll never understand this post; it’s a personal rant that will chronicle several events, and, while I am putting this in the public space, I still advise you to stop reading from this point. Omo! These are the days I prayed against, but it is what it is. I remember that beautiful Sunday. The indecision at first nearly ruined the script, but I saw the value of resilience. I remember the jokes about the green dress that looks like a 2-Sure promoter uniform. LOL, the aura was special though. It’s been a long time; something was off, and despite P.O. ringing in my ears, I still ran into the ditch. It was e

One hellish year and my one and half legs

This has been like a home recently but, the goal is to get stronger when it gets tougher. I'm fighting to win. (Photo credit: Ramsey's iPhone) I remember promising Bukky (formerly the Peridot of BR, now the Peridot of UK) that I'd write a lot this month; it definitely won’t be every day like I did last year, but I’ll try, and here you go. To start with, it’s been a tough year by all standards. Not sure there’s ever a year in which I felt half as much physical pain as this year; 2019 had the inglorious award until 2023 pulled up, and here’s me hoping I’ll never have to see a more painful year than this one. The past three weeks have been the toughest. I spent more days with the physiotherapists than at work, but I am probably the strongest human I know. I am not giving up anytime soon, but the pains better ease up before I do something crazy. Yesterday was the International Day of People Living with Disabilities. It should be a public holiday, but while I wasn’t physicall
