Months after he rested his battle with MI, rapper Vector has explained why he stopped competing with Mode 9.
He also gave reasons he did not enter for Headies 200, whose nominations have just thrown giants such as Burna Boy, Wizkid, Davido, Dekunle Gold and Simi in various categories.
According to the rapper, it is no more necessary for him to try to outdo Mode 9.
He tweeted on Thursday:
“As for the Headies. I stopped entering for it because I don’t want to compete with rappers (I can easily beat them on a one on one but that was Unilag). I’m grown now. Awards actually don’t mean anything to me anymore. Let new people win awards.
“I intentionally removed myself from the idea that I have to outdo Mode9. It’s not necessary. Ask him about me in the studio and he will tell you. I don’t care about clout. I just want to make music.
“Make Hennessy tell una how much my deal is worth as a rapper? Lol. But that’s not me. I can brag but it only brings more fake people around you anyways. Stay humble and live easy. Accolades are just accolades. Peace to everybody who deserves peace.”
