Almost a year after, Davido‘s January 10, 2016 tweet where he threatened to pull a Kanye at the 2016 Headies if his newly signed act, Mayorkun doesn’t win the NEXT RATED category continues to gain attention.
A few days ago, organisers of the HEADIES released the full list of nominees and Mayorkun didn’t get any nod.
While Davido hasn’t said anything about it, Thenetng had an interview with Mayorkun a month before the nominee list was released.

In the interview, Mayorkun said, ‘I saw that thing (the tweet) like months after he (Davido) said it and I believe he’s human, he has the right so say what he wants to say. I can say I want to win Grammys now, its what I want.’
When we queried further by asking, ‘Do you think you deserve to win the Headies this year?’
He responded saying, ‘I won’t use the word DESERVE, I won’t also use the word WANT. But whatever comes is fine because the way I’ve studied the industry, I’ve not seen any artiste break into the industry in a matter of months and win the NEXT RATED category. At the end of the day what ever happens is fine, Davido just said what he felt.’
