Davido,Wizkid,Olamide alongside with Simi and three others get highest Nomination in Headies 2018
Grammy Awards.
The Nominee list was contained in a statement released on Friday, April 13, 2018 by Smooth Promotions who are organisers of the event. The statement explained that thousands of entries had been submitted in the year under review (July 2016- December 2017) and the shortlisted entries made the nominee list.
This year’s event which is the show’s 12th edition consists over 25 categories and 77 nominees with 4 newly added categories.
The competition seems to be for music bigwigs in Nigeria, Davido, Wizkid and Olamide with all three alongside Simi bagging 5 nominations apart from Davido who has 6.
the event which was scheduled to hold in March was postponed due to the wedding ceremony of Dangote’s daughter. However, the event will now hold on May 5, 2018 at Eko Hotel & Suites while the nominees’ party will happen in Abuja on April 28, 2018.
From all categories, the most anticipating category seem to be the award for the Song of the Year, with Small Doctor’s Penalty, Olamide’s
Wo, Kiss Daniel’s Yeba, Runtown’s Mad over you, and Davido’s FIA and IF. Which song do you think will win?
