REALLY happy for Chris Breezy! #TeamBreezy all the way!!
And the Naija artists, congrats to them. Scoop(Siya Ngwekazi) was right when he said Teargas wouldn’t win. But the nomination was good enough too I guess!!
Pearlybubu on Mon, 27th Jun 2011 9:30 am

D’Banj and 2Face are known internationally, Teargas not so much!! I mean how else did D’Banj get signed onto Kane West’s label?! No man, its not gore Nigerians always win!! I love Teargas, but come on, did you honestly think they’d win, running against the big cats?

Only award that;s making me stand up a bit is Best internations – Tinie Tempah…
Yess indeed Softy..For coloured girls was cool, but not better than Book of Eli.
What does this Wiz-what-what do….Bruno Mars deserved the best new-comer award.
Zest on Mon, 27th Jun 2011 1:52 pm
yEAHHHH… Chris my boy…. Hardy 2 teargas.. There’s always next time bafe2… thnx 4 representing…
@JoneighGLOBAL on Mon, 27th Jun 2011 2:43 pm
Teargay might not have won but I say if they’re clever they’ll use the exposure as leverage to use whatever contacts they got networking. The men create good music worth exporting to the international market. Hope they didn’t go there for shopping items like watches & clothes only. They must milk the whole experience & create own opportunities.

Congrats to 2face.He is truly one of Adric’s finest artistes.
Congrats to Dbanj too.He is a proof that talent is over rated.Even without much of it, you can still make it and make it big.
Brown Shuga on Mon, 27th Jun 2011 3:35 pm
LOL “.. Congrats to Dbanj too.He is a proof that talent is over rated.Even without much of it, you can still make it and make it big… ”
I agree Mbulela, he’s just lucky to have nice sing alongs… is he a singer or rapper vele?
Ms_Tick on Mon, 27th Jun 2011 3:50 pm
Ohhhh i love Taraji i’m glad she won,,,,and my fave movie won For Colored Girls
mbulela on Mon, 27th Jun 2011 3:50 pm
@BS,meant to be a singer.
Dbanj thanks God for the day he met Don Jazzy.(He says this openly).
Don Jazzy is a monster producer and he is the power behind the throne that is Dbanj.Also,he is the president of Mohits Reocrds.
Very secretive fellow,lets his works speak for him and the ladies droll all over for him.
I hear he not just a star in the studio but also in the room.A very big star i hear.
Eish these Nigerians!!
Ms_Tick on Mon, 27th Jun 2011 3:50 pm
Ohhhh i love Taraji i’m glad she won,,,,and my fave movie won For Colored Girls YaY
MsRooi on Mon, 27th Jun 2011 10:13 pm
Brown Shuga… Rihanna won Best Female. Just to correct that error. Well, that’s what it says on the BET website.. I been seeing that Ms Kelly Rowland stole the show! Standing ovation and all that! But the video isn’t uploaded yet!
.. Anyway, congratz to all the winners.
