everything.

Azin my exact thoughts! ‘personally’ by Psquare deserves
more than two nominations sef. choreography, video of the year and
use of costumes atleast. I’m more than shocked sha.

Is that all? Nominations for this year’s hit songs n videos
and no “this year” by Jaywon, no “personally” by p-square (all
things being equal, that “personally” video ought to have been
nominated in more than four categories as provided above), no dbanj
nomination? I humbly submit that this isnt a fair representation of
the 2013 hit videos… Haba? P-square at least deserves to be
mentioned!

Ok, just saw dbanj…

The truth remains that the compilers of this list are simply jealous of PSquare’s exploit and progress. ” Perssonally” that can compete with any video in the world. This is what kills Nigerian things (trbalism and favouritism) revist ur list and tell me why even Alingo shuld not be there. RUBISH…

NO P-SQUARE……… ALINGO AND PERSONALLY SHOULD BE ON THE LIST.
