A social media influencer named @illythehost expressed his dissatisfaction with one of the Hip Hop categories. “No disrespect to Don Khuli (Khuli Chana) and OG Les (Da Les) but maaan wordz deserves a spot there”. But some have come correcting him saying that the Metro Fm awards is more about the people who were playlisted on the station. The awards are taking place on the 27th of April with the tickets being available on the MetroFM website.
