at the Ground Ball Room of the Oriental Hotel, Lekki, Lagos will be hosted
Sensational singer Tiwa Savage and Over the Moon star
Sidney Esiri aka Dr Sid, both from Mavin records have
been announced as hosts for the 2013 edition of The
Headies – Nigeria's biggest and most prestigious music
awards.
According to the organizers of the awards, the pair have
been selected in line with the awards' tradition of picking
talented and inspiring entertainers, to front an awards
ceremony that parades some of the continent's biggest
entertainers.
Tiwa Savage, 33, has earned a place for herself as one
of Nigeria's favourite artistes since the release of her
2010 debut single Kele Kele Love. The song which was
released while Tiwa was still in the US, topped charts
instantly but it was the follow up single 'Love me, Love
me, Love me' that won the hearts of many.
Speaking on The Headies 2013, as a co-host, Tiwa says;
'Being the 8th year, it's not easy to be consistent in a
country like Nigeria. So Kudos to the organizers to have
an award by Nigerians for Nigerians…it's always sketchy
when the nomination list comes up, like this year. We are
not going to touch on that, we'll just wait for the night and
address those issues and we'll go 'all Kanye West' on
the awards…'
Joining the newly married singer at The Headies 2013 as
a co-host is her label mate Sidney 'Dr Sid' Esiri.
Dr SID got his chance in front of the mic when he was
made a member of Da Trybe, and given a spot on the
song that caused a revolution in Nigerian Hip-Hop scene,
'OYA' in 2002 alongside Sasha, 2-Shotz, Timi, DEL, and
the Trybesmen (Eldee, Kb and Freestyle). But for his
need to finish up his degree at the University of Ibadan,
where he graduated as a Dentist, SID wouldn't have
suspended his music career.
And after working for three years at the Lagos University
Teaching Hospital, Dr SID made a tough decision to quit
practicing as a dentist for full-time music business. It's
2013, and the young man couldn't have made a better
decision. With many hit songs to his credit, Dr SID is a
doctor of music.
The Over the Moon hit maker couldn't hold back his
excitement over the organizers' decision to choose him
as a co-host for The Headies 2013.
'I've been trying to host this event for the past 6 years,
I've waited to be called to no avail and this year I'm
hosting. Wow! I'm so emotional right now, I'm glad for
this opportunity,' Dr SID expressed.
