Interesting Perspectives On The Olamide, Don Jazzy 'Beef'
Since the infamous show from Olamide and Don Jazzy at the Headies 2015 awards, fans and critics have weighed on the situation with some praising their reconciliation and others wishing that they had ‘feuded’ for a little longer.
Olamide and Don Jazzy, two artistes that started the drama at the Headies 2015.
It is not news that the distraction started after Mavins singer Reekado Banks won for the next rated category beating Lil Kesh, Kiss Daniel, Korede Bello and Cynthia Morgan to the highly coveted prize which was obviously the genesis of the whole drama.
Some critics hold that a little ‘beef’ every now and then is healthy for the entertainment industry, adding that life without some drama takes away the spark in show business.
Others maintain that as brand ambassadors and public figures with a massive following, Olamide and Don Jazzy should have acted in a more civil manner on the night.
It is against the backdrop of the second school of thought that there have been calls for a prompt reconciliation and public apology from both acts. And this they have done.
In the first place who was wrong? Did Olamide act in a manner fitting for a celebrity and public figure? Did he duly represent his brands on stage? Will the corporate brands consider erasing his name on their lists? Did Don Jazzy overreact? Did Korede Bello deserve the award on the night? More importantly, did he deserve to win over Lil Kesh? Did he mean it when he openly acknowledged Lil Kesh’s talent on stage on the night? Did the organizers have a fair voting system? Is there accessible data to corroborate their claims of who won what and how on the night? Now that there was a beef, what is next? These are pressing questions that demand some answers.
As we attempt to find answers, some have fingered Davido in the mix, adding that he engineered the process as far back as October, 2015. In truth, from a tweet in October 18, 2015 at exactly 2:34pm, the Skelewu singer beckoned on the YBNL boys to pull a Kanye on stage in the event Lil Kesh doesn’t emerge winner of the next rated category.
