Don Jazzy and his colleague, Olamide, at the annual award had an altercation when Don Jazzy’s signee, Reekado Banks, was announced the winner of the highly coveted Next Rated category.
This was because Olamide disputed the decision of the organisers, arguing that his YBNL-protégé, Lil Kesh deserved it more and it led to a mild drama.
