@Shasha: Yes ooo. This award is an open show of discrimination . They only give to their friends and not their "challengers". Or the people you mentioned have been banned from receiving the award

Holy holy is it reggae song to be dancehall

It was all done through a voting process and the people that won were the ones with the highest number of votes, so people let's get that right.
