Seems like the Nigerian reggae-dancehall singer Damini Ogulu, better known by his stage name Burna Boy, was not happy at all for not being included in the list of nominees.
Burna Boy expressed his displeasure on Twitter while also reaching out to his fans and calling them his real awards.
Later on, MTV Base responded to Burna Boy tweets via their official twitter page..
