Must Read: Open Letter To Headies.

This is an unedited open letter from
@baddestdjtimmy and does not represent
the opinion of Beanballmedia Blog.

Dear headies 2013 organizers, Let me start
by saying i am not just disappointed in
you but u have just proved to us that
Nigeria is not getting better any time soon.
you have been manipulated by a greedy
and hopeless telecommunications company
(mtn) because they sponsored your event
and you forgot the ultimate rule that
awards are meant to be impartial and
should be decided by the general public
especially when u told us to vote. you
distributed the awards among 4 mtn
ambassadors (iyanya, davido, praiz, and
kcee) and just 1 glo ambassador won
(waje). Is that not politics or is it
coincidence? Now let us analyze.

The headies 2013 was a flop, your stage
was shaped like a models runway, the
choreographers just lacked ideas and
didn't interpret the music, i have seen a
better performance from Nigeria's got
talent. What was the gulder ultimate search
theme song that was being played
throughout the event? Who on earth uses
the mavin slaves -dr shit and tiwa gabbage
as presenters of an event? Oh I forgot, the
awards lacked credibility and substance.

Why did majority of the winners come
from backstage, instead of coming from
the crowd like it should be? I watched
nickelodeon kids choice awards this year
and it is far better than the over hyped
headies which was not properly planned
and hurriedly done #shame
Can you explain to us how olamide won
best rap album? olamide has
commercialized rap, we cannot tell if he is
a rapper or a singer. As far as i am
concerned, he is just an entertainer like
dbanj. so where does vector, phyno,
reminisce,ice prince and illbliss who
represent real hip hop/rap stand? Don't
forget that there is a big difference
between commercial rap and real rap. all
he sings about is remind us that he is from
the street but to be sincere terry g is more
street than olamide and terry is not even a
rapper #justsaying

How can harry song win most mtn most
downloaded caller tune song for rip
Mandela? when did Mandela die and do u
want to compare that dead song with other
club bangers in the same category?

Simple, it is because harrysong is a label
mate to your mtn ambassador (kcee). In
my opinion jawon, waje,2 face, Clarence
peters , blackmagic and davido deserved
there awards. how can wizkid not win any
award?

Someone who has been the most consistent
and sought after this year. i am sure wizkid
declined an interview from you that's why
he didn't win. in fact wizzy should be the
artiste of the year. Why did dbanj,
burnaboy, wandecoal, psquare, flavour not
win anything? oh i know why, it is
because they are Glo ambassadors.

Now explain to me why Sean tizzle won
the next rated award and he was in the
same category as burna boy who is
obviously more relevant and talented. We
all know Sean tizzle has the same old
boring style and we can always predict his
next song. Phyno too deserved the next
rated award and how on planet earth did d-
tunes win producer of the year? Someone
who recycled 1 beat 5 times (kukere, your
waist, mama eh,lenu by spicy, kilogbe). so
where does ace producer del b that
produced the national anthem limpopo
stand? You are all insane!!!!!!

Infact, headies, mtn and Pdp should merge
and start a new political party for the
upcoming election in 2015. it should be
named mhdp( mtn headies democratic
party). we all know exactly what
happened, mtn agreed to sponsor your
event and they gave you the list of who
should win. our votes did not count; do
you think we are blind and foolish like
yourself? Instead of your greedy mtn
sponsors to improve their network, reduce
tariffs and contribute to the growth of the
nation, they will be sending me sms on
how they gave free ipad and mp3 to those
who sent a sms to a code. They spend all
their time looking for how to extort
customers and scam us with their
ridiculous offers (free airplane and a trip to
the moon)

I am sorry to say sir but if u continues this
way your company will fold up and
collapse because you are not an epitome of
integrity. i am speaking on behalf of
majority of Nigerians who know the truth
and are not afraid to say it. those who feel
this letter is nonsense should not forget to
curse, insult and threaten me on
@baddestdjtimmy. after my last 2 open
letters, i have been insulted, chewed up,
spit out, as being very jobless, hopeless
and a broke laptop dj.

You guys don't know how much i love the
insults so it means i am doing a good job
and it makes me stronger. So in
conclusion, if u have the opportunity to
host another award show, learn from your
mistakes and let our votes count this time.
Let those who deserve it win, is that too
much to ask?
