In the music industry, recognition is crucial for artists, and one of the most prestigious award shows in Nigeria is “The Headies.”
For many artists, being nominated and attending the event is a significant achievement, and it can be a defining moment in their careers.
However, in 2011, Erigga, a Nigerian rapper, was bounced from attending “The Headies” and denied the opportunity to participate in the event.
It was a devastating moment for Erigga, who had been working tirelessly to make a name for himself in the Nigerian music scene. He had been making waves with his unique style and lyrical prowess, and his fans were eagerly anticipating his appearance at the award show. Unfortunately, his dreams were dashed, and he was left to wonder what went wrong.
Despite the setback, Erigga did not give up. He continued to work hard and hone his craft, and a year later, in 2012, he was nominated for two categories at “The Headies” – Best Rap Single and Lyricist on the Roll. This time around, he was invited to attend the event, and he made sure to make the most of the opportunity.
At the awards ceremony, Erigga’s hard work and dedication paid off as he won the Lyricist on the Roll award. It was a significant moment for the rapper, and it showed that perseverance and determination can lead to success.
Keep pushing chief. Rejection is not a setback, it’s a redirection towards the path meant for us.
