Tekno disqualified from Headies Next Rated category
The award, billed to take place on December 22, was embraced with criticisms from top notch musicians in the industry.
Tekno had lambasted the organisers for including him in the “Next Rated” category.
In an Instagram post made about a month ago, he said “Next rated after how many years! Let’s be honest pls”.
This was the only category Tekno was nominated in. He missed out
on major nominations including ‘Artiste of the Year’, which was the
award he was hoping to be nominated for.
Next Rated has always
attracted controversies, because, pundits say, it has become the most
celebrated category, attracting a prize and attention even the Artiste
of the Year rarely gets. Many of today’s big names got a prop on their
way up from winning the Next Rated category.
But Tekno is the first to be disqualified in this manner.
