HipTV, creators of The Headies Awards, felt it necessary to re-explain how the nomination list is compiled.
Stating that artists and creators must submit their work in order to be considered for the award.
The statement reads as follows:
“The Headies Secretariat recognizes the fact that we have to continue to educate the public and the industry about the Headies and its salient details.
“An artist may not be nominated if he/she doesn’t submit materials for screening.
“The Headies secretariat made a call for entry which lasted from the 1st-31st of October, this campaign was boosted with the inclusion of promotions across all media platforms to cover a wider reach across the country.
“Artists, producers, and video directors may not be nominated if they did not call adequate attention to their creative works in the year under review by submitting their materials during this period.
“While we understand the pain of missing being appreciated over the creative materials in a calendar year, we encourage label owners, artistes and their managers to endeavor to submit their entries before the end of the call period.”
