YBNL boss, Olamide, has won the first award at the ongoing Headies awards, after being announced winner in the Best Street Hip Hop category with his ‘Who You Epp’ song.
Baddo was however absent at the venue of the awards as Patoranking and Bez – the two other winners announced after him – were nowhere to be found.
Nigerians in their usual manner rent the social media with their take on the issue as they believe the award is no longer as prestigious as it used to be.
First 3 winners all absent; Olamide, Patoranking & Bez #Headies2016

Olamide just won an award for “who you epp” at the headies but poor voice clarity won’t let someone hear the category. Sigh ?

Was wondering why the #headies2016 took time to start…that was because they were thinking about aborting the event…Olamide why?
