[READ] The Organisers Of Headies Awards Explain Why Tekno Was Included In ‘Next Rated’ Category

Ever since Tekno was named among the
nominees for the Next Rated category at the
2016 Headies Awards, he has shown his deep
displeasure at still being counted as an
‘upcoming artist’.
He went online to say he has been too
long in the game to be placed in that
category. He took to Instagram to say
“‘Next rated after how many years! Let’s
be honest pls”.
The organisers of the Headies awards
have come out to explain why Tekno still
remains in the ‘Next Rated’ category,
despite having released his first single in
2013.
Read below:-
Over the years, Nigeria’s most
prestigious music award, The Headies
has strived for excellence in building the
award on true values of integrity,
transparency and responsibility. We
have worked hard to reward artistic
ingenuity since day one and also
educating the teaming fans of the award,
the public and the entertainment
industry about the rules of the awards
and the criteria for nominations in each
category.

Often times, we realize that the fans,
people in the industry and the media are
either misled or not paying attention to
the rules and criteria for nomination.
Hence, it is important to set the record
straight and continue to enlighten the
industry and the fans. We recognise how
important The Headies is to our industry
and we will not take information for
granted.
Next Rated for example are officially
unreleased artiste in the year under
review. This means, no matter how good
or popular your song may be, how many
hit singles or how many good music
videos you may have, if you have not
recorded and released an official album,
you are still eligible to be nominated for
that category.
In the same vein, you may start your
career a year ago, as long as you have
released an album, will not the eligible
for nomination in the Next Rated
Category.
