Stonebwoy disappointed with 4syte nominations

imagesDancehall artiste, Stonebwoy, has expressed reservations at the failure of nominations committee of the MTN 4Syte Music Video Awards to nominate the video for his song,Not again, for the categories of Best Storyline and Submarine for the category of Best Male Video.

In an interview with Showbiz, Stonebwoy pointed out that he wasn’t trying to create unnecessary hype for himself in the media by criticising the nominations committee but rather he felt that as an artiste and an interested party he has the right to make his opinions known.

“I’m not like other artistes who try to make a name for themselves by starting controversies, but I feel the awards committee fell short in some aspects and I have to point this out to them,” he said.

The Pull Up star, who has received nominations for the Best Reggae/Dancehall for the song, Submarine, as well as nominations in the categories of Best Female Video and Best Choreography video with Eazzy for the so, Emergency, said the criteria for selection of videos could have been more transparent.

Stonebwoy admitted, however, he was aware complaining would not change the fact that his videos had not been nominated but felt that his complaints would convince the nominations team to modify their process in subsequent years.

He added that in his opinion, receiving nominations was a recognition of his tireless work and as a result he valued that more than receiving the actual award.

“The public voting process is random so if my fans don’t vote, then it means I would not receive an award but that is not an indication that the videos of my songs are not good.  So for me, being nominated is worth more than any award they can give me,” he added.

The 4syte Music Video Awards comes off on November 15 at the Accra International Conference Center and a total of 18 nominations are up for grabs.

Meanwhile, last Friday, Stonebwoy released a new song on which he features fellow Tema based artiste, Sarkodie, titled Baafira,. Baafira means talk less and do more. Stonebwoy describes the song as an “afro-dancehall meet rap collaboration”.
