UR HAVE PROVE THAT U ARE ONE OF THE BEST AFRICA CAN OFFER

ALL HATERZ CAN BURN NOW TO BLAZES

yourfather you sure say you get mtv?

ELDEE,
I KNOW YOU DONT HAVE CABLE TV, AND WHAT DOES INNIT MEAN?

There was something funny about the award,I was waiting to see my guy Dbanj live @ Munich only for MTV to show one kangaroo award presentation by one of these chanel O presenters,it was as if he was given the award in a kitchen.

HEY YOUNG DIGI,

Very good point about MTV's website, not detailing the info on dbanj's win for the African's act.

Good point,     MTV are taking the pissssssssssssssss

@yourfather, mtvbase here in naija. I noticed the best african act award was not given on the same stage as all the other awards, it was even sizwe the south african mtv presenter that presented it to him.

@young_digi, i dont understand why mtv is even bothering with this best african act category if it cant be presented on the same stage that the avril lavings, nelly furtado and amy winehouse get their awards. Its real bullshit on mtv's part and im just so pissed, it kinda gives me the feeling that africa's music potential is still not recognised.

Anyways congrats to dbanj all the same, at least he won the awards, just thot why me would have gained more international exposure, u know, anyways njoy all, naija rocks

Congratulations to D'Banj!!!! He deserves it. I'm so happy for the Koko master.

@lola, exactly, they shudnt even bother doing it if they cannot have him out there like that, i mean come on, i went thru the photos and theres not even 1 single photo of any of the african nominees, that is str8 up bullshit as far as i'm concerned, dbanj needs to address that situation publicly, he shudnt just kiss ass and make it look like dey doing him a favor, he deserves every bit of the lights, camera and action

this shit really annoyed me, u dont understand

lola made some good points too, but do we as Africans do any thing about the current situation?

singing***rundown

gbedu yi ma Bleep won up, o ma Bleep won up, gba be won ma rundown

na so now,DA KOKO MASTER has done it and i'm proud of his @rse
^{show those oyinbo the efficiency of ur koko stick**}

@alexpissu am with you,i strongly believe there is politics behind these awards(my opinion) and also i dont think these mtv guys give out the award cos they truly appreciate african music,only one slot for the whole of africa & the winner recieved it backstage,are they trying to insult us or what?kora award is far better than all these african acts award.

SINCE YOU ALL DON'T KNOW AM GONNA TELL YOU HOW IT GOES DOWN WITH THIS AFRICAN NOMINATION, AFRICAN NOMINATION IS GIVEN OUT TO THEM BOYS ONLY BECAUSE THEY WANT YOU TO SUBSCRIBE TO THERE CHANNEL SO WHO EVER SAID THEY APPRICIATE THE MUSIC IS TALKING WITH HIS A55 CHICKS.
NOW FOR ALL THOSE WHERE WANTING TO SEE DBANJ GET THIS AWARD AM SO SORRY BECAUSE DBANJ GOT THIS AWARD IN A SMALL CEREMONY TWO DAYS BEFORE THE MAIN EVENT, SO DID TUFACE.
IF YOU DIDN'T KNOW, NOW YOU KNOW

Fastmoney why do they give them the award before the main event?aren't they supposed to be given on the main day?

.Tuface collected his MTV award live in Europe ,don,t just say what u don,t know. Go and search 4 d video on the internet.

@everyone dissing MTV

I'm definitely not for the back door treatment but the thing is at least they're recognizing African artists. Our music just started to gather major international exposure like never b4. Now the reason the awards are given out that way might be that the present average MTV Europe award viewer might not necessarily be interested yet in that category. Everything in this world is mostly based on self advancement, believe me someone fought for them to create that category and people still need to keep fighting to be paid as much attention as others. We just need to prove we are worth the time slot allocated to us because everything, every minute is about money. Just a couple of yrs ago, for the Grammy awards, the hip hop category was not broadcast, i think it was actually not given out on stage and the artists kinda protested and right now hip hop is the biggest genre in music. There is MTV Base Africa right? I think they need to start they're own awards strictly for African artists.

@ lola4eva don jazzy was there, he was probably too shy to come on stage, lol

D'banjs thankYOU speach was kinda better than 2baba's own
