However, when Shallipopi walked onto the stage, he was just given a handshake as organizers disclosed that award plaques had run out.
Shallipopi who was angry took to his Twitter page and vowed to boycott subsequent award ceremonies.
He further disclosed that he didn’t even want the award for ‘Best Rap Single’ because he does not consider himself a rapper.
“The next one if una see me make I bend.
“I nor go even lie for una sef, I nor want that award. Give the real rappers wey dey the category. Me, Shallipopi I nor be rapper.”
