…As P-Square, Wizkid emerge winners
All the hypes, all the permutations and the razzmatazz came to head on Sunday at Eko Hotel where the Headies 2012 held.
As many observers have pointed out, it was a night of surprises as
some artistes who were never given a chance came out shinning, even at
the expense of some notable acts who the odds favoured. Yet, some
dyed-in-the-wool stars, stood their grounds to prove they are still very
much around.
By and large, the great winners are P-Square, the sensational kid,
Wizkid and Vector who bagged two awards respectively. The likes of
D’Banj, 9ice, Tiwa Savage, Davido, Sound Sultan came calling even though
they had a little less than they bargained for.
At least D’Banj would have a consolation of bagging the ‘Song of the
Year’ with his ‘Oliver Twist’ album and better still, having to wrestle
down P-Square, Davido, Iyanya and Chuddy K and wouldn’t feel any cool
either for missing out on the ‘Album of the Year’ which P-Square won.
On the ‘Artiste of the Year’ category, the whole house rooted and
rooted for the music sensation of the moment, Wizkid and when the cat
was let out of the bag, it was indeed, the twenty-something young lad
who came tops, flogging Ice Prince, P-Square, Naeto C. and D’Banj
