Nollywood actress Nkechi Blessing, in response to music singers Davido and Burna Boy’s heartbreaking loss at the Grammys, paid tribute to Headies.
It is no longer news that popular Nigerian artists Davido, Burna Boy, Tem’s, Arya Star, Asake, and Olamide were overlooked in the many categories for which they were nominated at the 2024 Grammy Awards, which were held on Sunday.
There was a significant outrage on social media when none of the vocalists received awards for their songs, despite high expectations.
Taking to her Instagram page, Nkechi averred that Nigerians and Nigerian artists would start appreciating Headies now because they now know of their worth.
She stated that a time would come when American rapper, Jay Z would fly to Eko Hotel, Lagos to receive a Headies award.
Nkechi added that no award platform is too small or not important as long as a group of people come together to acknowledge the hard work and then reward you for that.
“No award platform is small or not important as long as a group of people come together to acknowledge your hard work and then reward you for that hard work. Take them seriously. Big shout out to Headies. Now Nigerians will know your worth!! Make una dey support una own, Headies sef go nominate Jay Z and Jay Z go fly enter Lagos for Eko Hotel come collect the award. We sef no small”.
She captioned the post with, “Giant of AFRICA. Proudly NIGERIAN. Now @ng_supereagles Make us proud on Wednesday. Return our list mantle. Prayers up for you all”.
