Why I Still Feel I Deserved AMVCA Over Kiekie, others - Nasboi
Nasboi speaks out
Online personality and musician Nasboi is speaking again about the AMVCA not nominating him for Best Online Social Content Creator award. His colleagues like Isbae U, Tee Kuro, Steve Chuks, Edem Victor, Bimbo Ademoye, and others were nominated with Elozonam and Kiekie ultimately winning the award. Now, during an interview with Rubbin Minds, Nasboi is doubling down on why he still thinks he deserved a nomination over his colleagues. Here's what he said.

During his interview, Nasboi was asked "You called out the AMVCAs last year because you weren't nominated for the Best Online Social Content Creator award [which Kiekie and Elozonam ended up winning]. Were you really hurt by it, and did you feel you deserved it more than the people nominated?" to which he said:
NASBOI: Yes. I'm so sorry, but yes. Because I put in work that particular year. I put in work more than the people that were nominated, I can't even lie. I don't care if they agree, because it's personal. That's why I can only rant on my phone, that's the only thing I can do. I can't go and fight anybody. I don't know why I wasn't nominated. But at the end of the day, I've got some awards too and I'm grateful for the awards that I've got. If I don't get an AMVCA, that's fine. And recently, my colleagues got nominated and I'm rooting for them. I already like someone there and he's my guy so I'm like "go boy, go boy!". So I don't even care. I guess I was quite emotional, but now I'm so grown now that I don't even really care. I like the people that appreciate my stuff, so an award doesn't really crown my effort, but it would be nice.
He was then asked "When you make statements like that, saying that you were better than people that were nominated, do you find that it affects relationships?" to which he replied:
NASBOI: I don't care. It's not like I'm better than the people, but at that time, that one year, I did a great job. I did a greater job. And they know, they know. This is not me washing. In that space, I was like the hottest creator at that time. I had some senior celebrities, everybody was here. It was this guy. So I feel like it wasn't fair. They should have at least nominated me.
