SMVA WTF LOL BRB

So the SMVA's have come and gone and ofcourse we all have our comments and criticisms.

First off these are MY opinions about the parts of the show which i watched live at the Eko Hotel Hall, Oya lets go!

Its amazing that after the first MAMA's award which was held in Abuja, no Nigerian Awards show as been able to replicate anything similar to what was done during that show.  Agreed the 1st MAMA's had its low point but still, they were a perfect example of how to do/not to do Award Ceremonies.

The host of the show was Uti Nwachukwu who was in all ramifications as boring as a log, he was confident but was feeling himself too much.

So the SMVA's  first off the nominations saw BankyW leading the nominations (Thank God he picked at least 2 of them), then there were many african representatives (half of which I've never watched/seen their videos) then finally, the SMVA was very fashion oriented which was cool.

There were performances by P Square, The EME crew, Storm (Sasha and YQ), upcoming acts (ill assume were from the Coded tunes stable), some african performers (yawn) and then there was ASA.

Without a doubt Asa's performance was the best followed closely by the EME crew and then Sasha P (with her back up singer who stole the show).
P Square were impressive but lacked creativity (only creativity was probably their shiny jackets and maybe Kaffy who was strutting her stuff-the girl dey move sha)
Young Skales, Wizkid and BankyW killed their performance especially Wizkid who was giving us some kind dance step that proved that without doubt he is gonna be around for a loooong time!
The storm crew proved their worth thanks to Sasha who was introduced by Bez on the guitar and then guys with trumpets (who didnt play it) and 2 dancers and 1 singer.
YQ was quite boring on stage even though he performed his hit single 'I like girls'.  He didn't seem like he had a plan for his performance and I really doubt if he really likes girls. ;)

The offf parts of the show were the rain, the fact that all award presenters had to share microphones (like really SoundCity, ya'll didnt have enough mics), even during the performances there were never enough mics (JEEZ)
The podium on stage looked like the podiums used in up coming churches and the stage was short of Bleh! Very boring and lacked any form of creativity.

The seating arrangement was iffy with VIP being up in the gallery, nominees right in front and the screaming crowd (who shuld have been in front) were at the back.

In a whole, I would give the show 5/10

Trivia
The Choc Boys were no where in the scene
D'banj doesn't have an afro
Wande Coal wasn't present (R2bees who were supposed to perform weren't there, atleast i dont think so)
There were specific red carpet IV's which didn't make any sense at all
The half naked men on stage (eeeerrrm)
Mr. Nigeria 'Can I hear your hands up'
Mike Anyasodo was dedicating his Album Award
The Ogungbes (Kenny and KSB) blessed us with their fabulous articulation
The VOICE OVER ARTISTE back stage (No Comment)
