The MOBO Awards 2016

What an absolute mess. I wasn't going to dredge up this "made for stream, fraudulent, all about the money, award" show but as a black person who is inspired by black music I was categorically disgusted.



How dare they still call this programme the MOBO awards, unless they have changed the meaning of,  'MOBO'.

There was nothing that symbolised, "Music of Black Origin."

I had to express my frustrating via Twitter.


Firstly, why hold this award show in Scotland? Was is just me or weren't the crowd as dry as a Scottish oat cake.

"They had no vibe and no interaction with the performers."

The highlight of the night was WSTRN mistakenly being given the award for best song whilst Abra Cadbra ft Krept and Konan, Robbery Remix was playing in the background because he was the real winner.

The real winner is....
"Where the fuck does this happen?"

Side Note: Done and Dusted the production company behind the MOBO's, apologised for this very sloppy error.



Best Hip Hop act going to Section Boyz. What a joke. Y'all ain't done enough.


This award should of went to Giggs or Wretch.


Not only was the vibe wrong, the wrong awards given out, so was the sound quality.

Backing tracks were too low and made songs sound shitty.

Songs like WSTRN's 'In2', is a song which heavily relies on it's backing track and this was evident during their performance on the night.

I'm not shading them. I get that you want to sing and dance but the award show needs to get this too.

Congrats to all those that won, whether you deserved it or not....
