The recently held Soundcity MVP awards have continued to receive buzz even though it looks like one of the nominees of the night, Peruzzi might be shading them over his inability to pick an award.
It would be recalled that the rising
music star was among the nominees for the 'Best New Act' category which
he lost to Teni The Entertainer. It looks like it didn't go down well
with him as he took to his Twitter page on Sunday, January 6, 2019,
where he tweeted about being the hardest working new artist in the
country.
"Personally, I'd say I worked the hardest
last year than any other new act, same way I made more money than any
other new act in the country. There's a way I see myself, it's MY race,
there's a way I'm running it. Focus on yours. Facts over hype. It's
really simple," he tweeted.
Peruzzi's tweet has gotten everyone talking.
However, Peruzzi has since taken down the
tweet. We leave you guys to be the judge and jury as to if this tweet is
actually true or Peruzzi had his emotions taking over judgment.

Despite starting hours behind its scheduled
time, the awards pulled off a befitting spectacle as before a gathering
of music lovers and a constellation of stars.
The event which was held at the Convention centre, Eko Hotels and Suites,
began with a red carpet which preceded the main awards and as custom
with the event, the organizers ran a live feed via its cable and online
channels for viewers from home to be a part of the event.
After a fairly lengthy delay, the award
finally commenced with a line up of flowing opening performance from a
number of artists. From hypeman, Do2dtun who brought his unique energy on stage to performances from Idowest, Slimcase, Mz Kizz, Oladips, Chinko Ekun whose backup dancers dressed in flowing white Agbada [Traditional wear] caused a stir as they dance to 'Able God' to Naira Marley performing 'Issa Goal', Kida Kudz, Skibbi, Mystro and 'Wetin We Gain' singer, Victor AD, kicking off an incredible night.
