Abimbola was one of the next movie star reality TV show housemates for
2015. Just when we thought the history of Lil-Kesh not being The Next
Rated artiste of the year has been buried, she came up with an article
to shed more light on why he couldn’t be a brand ambassador either to
Headies organisation or Hyundai as a company.
WHEN I hear Next Rated, what comes to
mind is the next big thing and that would come off having had a good
previous year. A few questions also come to mind. What should be the
criteria for winning The Next Rated category? Who should decide the
winner? Should the brand providing the car be involved in the selection
process?
I would answer these questions shortly but let me digress a little.
This year I didn’t know much about the
run off to The Headies, but of course I wouldn’t have, I am still trying
to settle in after being on The Next Moviestar reality show but I saw
the advert online and decided to watch since I was too tired to go out.
The show started late, had too many breaks in between yet there were so
many amazing performances, my personal favourite of the night was
Vector’s. Vector got me on my feet in my home, screaming and so also did
the performance by Harrysong as well as the collaborative performance
between Kunle Ayo, Timi Dakolo and the great Majek Fashek! It was live
music, wow!!!
Then it came to the part where the acts
in The Next Rated category were about to be unveiled and I said to my
sisters “It is going to be Koredo Bello, Kiss Daniels, Reekardo Banks
and Tekno in this group” boom! The young men started showing up to see
the car and canvass for votes boom!! A certain young man I didn’t
recognise showed up, boom!!! I was told that he is Lil Kesh. I took
another look and thought he looked a little different and I was like “oh
that’s the shoki guy, he was nominated too? nice” then I remembered the
Iranu abasha song and Lil Kesh’s Fa poron jade line and then I said “He
is too vulgar though”. Then another set of questions came to me. Does
he stand a chance? Yes. Should he stand a chance? hmmmm. What if he
wins? Hmmmmmmmmm!
This takes me back to the first set of
questions but before I go on please note that this is not a piece to
judge or crucify anybody. God and people who know me know that I,
Folasade Abimbola, am not in any way infallible or perfect, I have made
mistakes and I’m certain I will still make some more even after
publishing this piece. What if this piece itself is a mistake? I hope
not, anyway back to the subject. What should be the criteria for winning
The Next Rated category? In my opinion.
Number of hit songs
In that category Lil Kesh takes it with
about four hit songs, wow!!! Followed by Kiss Daniels with two, followed
by Korede who had probably the most popular song of last year Godwin,
it was
