Tyla Should’ve Just Denounced Her “Best Afrobeats Award” Nomination – Dotun

Popular OAP, Dotun has come out to blast South African singer, Tyla over her acceptance speech after winning the Best Afrobeats Award at MTV VMAs 2024.

He recently had his say via his social media page, and fans have been reacting.

According to him, Tyla winning the Best Afrobeat Song at the 2024 VMA was definitely a miss, and he would’ve preferred the singer denouncing the nomination instead of accepting the award and saying she represents Amapiano.

Dotun added that he does not understand the artiste accepting an award that doesn’t represent her genre of music.

His words,

WOW.
