Just yesterday, Ghanaian born UK based musician FUSE ODG slam the organisers of the BET Awards for what he calls disrespectfulness to their (musicians) hardwork and achievements due to the fact that, International Acts category of the awards is received backstage and not on the main stage.
As if that is not enough, Nigerian female artiste, Yemi Alade has also thrown the same stone to BET Organisers.
The "Johnny" hitmaker lashed out her anger on the organisers via her IG Handle though she was a nominee for the Best International Act Africa category which was won by Ghanaian Dancehall artiste Stonebwoy.
Winners of the International Act categoryies are awarded hours before the main event and this doesnot taste good for the artistes who are nominated.
Yemi sees this as humiliation on the African artistes and concluded that "If African artists are not worthy in your sight, please by all means Cancel, Delete, Ommit the Best International Act (Africa) Category out of the glorified Award".
Read her message:
"By the way…@bet_intl AFRICA IS NOT A COUNTRY.!!! ..IT IS WRONG TO NOMINATE HUGE AFRICAN STARS AND PUBLICLY TRY TO HUMILIATE AFRICA.WHY ON EARTH IS THE AFRICAN CATEGORY OF THE AWARDS HELD HOURS BEFORE THE “MAIN EVENT? IF AFRICAN ARTISTS ARE NOT WORTHY IN YOUR SIGHT.”
“PLS BY ALL MEANS CANCEL,DELETE,OMMIT THE “BEST INTERNATIONAL ACT (AFRICA) CATEGORY OUT OF THIS GLORIFIED AWARD. THIS IS WRONG! !! WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG.”
“Mainwhile… PLS NEXT TIME,CREDIBILITY OVER PADDYPADDY!! CREDIBILITY !!”
