Sunday Nweke, the Nigerian record producer better known as Masterkraft, has called out the organisers of The Headies for “choosing to ignore me for years”.
The organisers of the award announced the nominees for this year’s edition on May 24.
Mastercraft didn’t make the list of nominees in the producer of the year category.
At about the time when the award ceremony was being held in the United States on Monday, Nweke took to Twitter to express his disappointment at the organisers.
Mastercraft said despite his contribution to the music industry, The Headies “have chosen to ignore me for years.”
And while I can … I have been a blessing to this Naija music industry for years and will forever be a legend to anybody who chooses to be excellent , exceptional and special in the music space of this continent …. And while the @The_Headies have chose to ignore me for years …

The music producer said he will not allow the snub to deter him from actualising his objectives of “leaving this world a legend”.
“And while I can, I have been a blessing to this Naija music industry for years and will forever be a legend to anybody who chooses to be excellent, exceptional and special in the music space of this continent. And while the @The_Headies have chosen to ignore me for years,” he wrote.
“I will never give up or quit !!! I’m gonna forever leave this world a legend and a blessing to many. Every single year I come thru and I carry @2niteFlavour @phynofino @wizkidayo @davido @burnaboy @Olamide and as many as I have been blessed to work with.
