Burna Boy, Davido, Wizkid, Omah Lay, Dominate Headies Nomination List
The Headies awards has released their list of nominated artistes in preparation for the upcoming 14th edition and this list was released on the 4th of December 2020.
The nomination reviews releases from July 2019 to September 2020, as a result, works from the last quarter of the year did not make the cut. Regardless, several artistes lucked out. For instance, newcomer Omah Lay, bags 4 nominations ranging from next rated to viewer’s choice awards.
Self-proclaimed African Giant, Burna Boy also comes in as a heavyweight nominee with his name turning up in a total of 6 categories. For the 30BG gang, it’s evident on the list that this is their year as Davido and Mayorkun both make an appearance in the category for artiste of the year, among others.
Other newcomers recognised on the Headies awards’ nomination list include Bella Shmurda, Oxlade, and Tems who were both given a nod for next rated. For the Rookie of the Year category, Zinoleesky and Jamopyper battle it out alongside Alpha P and Olakira.
