Who Will Be Crowned Headies Artiste Of Year 2017

Who Will Be Crowned Headies Artiste Of Year 2017? 
In matter of months, Headies will unveil their nominees for different categories of awards for the year 2017. Today however I wish to focus on artiste of the year category. So those in the know of industry goings on, who do you think is taking the coveted award home this year?

In my judgement, I think the battle is between these familiar four Davido, Wizkid, Tekno and Runtown.

DAVIDO
There is no denying the fact that the self acclaimed "Son of Mercy" has done himself good for this year both from the release of the successful Son of Mercy EP earlier in the year and his subsequent release of smash hit singles. From the Tekno produced "IF" to his recent "Fall". "IF" for instance has been remixed into football version(Drogba and Omeruo), foreign version(R Kelly), Fuji version and still counting. Again the single brought with it the popular "30 billion for the Akant" slogan. His follow up single "Fall" has proven to be another wonder as it is currently dominating the airplays. So putting these together, Davido is definitely in a great contest for the prize.

WIZKID
Baba Nla may not have done much but his "Come closer" single gathered much worldwide wave especially as featured Drake. Again Wizkid is said to be preparing to drop his "Sounds From The Other Side" EP sometimes in July, the reason for his faked social media war with Davido which is nothing but promotional stunt; maybe they think we don't think. And considering the fact that Headies considers songs from October to July, Baba Nla may be in hot contention to retain his crown if his sounds from the other side appeals to our ears.

TEKNO
"Slim Daddy" as he has recently chosen to start calling himself, has worked hard to keep trending from last year to this year. This has partly been due to the fact that has used all known female name to sing.
However, Tekno has the baggage of his last year controversy with the Headies organisers after he rightly turned down his nomination in the next rated category when it was apparent that Tekno was last year's artiste of the year. So, we are waiting to see if Headies will ever be.. Continue reading on my bio👆
