Multi-award-winning South African rapper Nasty C has missed out on a BET award after he was defeated by Nigeria’s Abisola Abiola Ajikawo popularly known as Little Simz.

Although he did not win the award, the nomination was a major accolade for Nasty C.

It was his second BET nomination after another one in 2017. A month ago when he visited Kenya for a tour, he told Chatspot, a popular show on Switch TV that he loveS awards because they mean everything to his fans.

He said each award he takes home is not his but for fans who are the people supporting his music career and dreams in the entertainment industry.

“I value them because they mean the world to my fans because my fans are the guys that sit at home and they watch the whole show, my fans are the ones that use their own airtime to vote for me and stuff like that,” he said.

In 2021, ‘Jack’ is his biggest song so far. He recently released a collabo with fellow rapper Indigo Stella dubbed ‘Company’.

Additionally, he bagged SAMA Award this year for the best hip hop album ‘Zulu Man With Some Power’ which he released in 2020.
