Cassper Nyovest has basically been fighting the organisers of the SAMA’s via his social media accounts the rapper even threatened to boycott the event because of how unfair they were to him with the nominations.
His big fight was that he doesn’t understand how the SAMA rules just changed over night and he didn’t understand why Doc Shebeleza wasn’t nominated for record of the year. It seems that some of the legends in the industry advised Cassper to basically forget about the SAMA’s and just focus on doing what he loves doing and the only acknowledgement he needs is the love he gets from his fans.
Oskido says that he has been asking the very same questions that Cassper asked for at least 20 years and they still haven’t answered them so it’s really pointless getting yourself down over that. Check out Oskido’s wise words and his advice to Cassper below.
The Legends Agree…
Count Your Blessings…
@casspernyovest as long as you are an independent record label forget @thesamas what’s important is to keep standing like @KalawaJazmee #21years in the music industry but still rocking. Music industry is not about the awards,your fans are your awards.Imagine I only won my 1st #sama after 19 years.Go to the samas have fun,if you don’t win life goes on.What’s important is the street creed in order for you to last in this industry. #Ibelieve
Boycott The SAMA’s…
“@casspernyovest,Good thing u changed your mind about not boycotting the awards ,Kalawajazmee boycotted the #samas for 5years.But for the sake of growing the brand equity we decided to use the Samas platform to market our brand.With 5 nominations go and have fun and also promote DocDocShebeleza even more. Now my wish is for a hip hop act to win song of the year and album of the year categories because you guys have put more effort in your craft in 2014. Let’s fight our enemies with love. To all the independent records labels: United we stand,divided we fall.Good luck to @mrcashtime and my brother in law @akaworldwide“
