Burna Boy, Wizkid, Davido…Winners and losers at this year’s Soundcity MVP Awards
This year’s edition of Soundcity MVP Awards may have come and gone. But the issues that made headlines at the annual event aimed at honouring finest talents across the talent will remain evergreen.
One of such, of course, is those who won awards and those who missed out.
Below is CRISPNG’s winners and losers at this year’s Soundcity MVP Awards:
Winners
The major winner at this year’s edition of the annual event is award-winning Nigerian Afrofusion singer, Burna Boy. The singer continued his impressive run from last year yet again with several awards to his credit on Saturday night.

— SOUNDCITY AFRICA! (@SOUNDCITYtv) January 12, 2020
The popular singer won the “African Artiste Of The Year,” “Song of the Year,” “Best Male MVP” categories respectively. There’s obviously no better way to kick-start the year than this.
Another winner on the list is Teni who emerged the “Best Female MVP”. Davido also made the cut by bagging the “Digital Artiste of the Year”. Other winners include JoyBoy who won the “Best Pop” category and DJ Spinall who won “African DJ of the Year.”
Not left out were Fireboy, Naira Marley, Tiwa Savage, Rema and Rexxie.
Losers
Wizkid is undoubtedly one of Africa’s finest artistes presently. However, he was missing on the list of those who stole the show at this year’s edition of Soundcity MVP Awards. Another of such is Falz.
