Giving a criterion for an artist to win a local award, Brymo stated that such an artist has to have 70% of his work within the country.
In another tweet, he expressed that rating streams and awards from platforms not based in Africa is a silly act.
See his tweets below:
Any artiste popping elsewhere should go there and get awards… Those who don’t play in a certain league don’t get decorated there… one concert a year in Lagos and you are artiste of the year.. crap!! 70% of your work must be here yearly to qualify for important awards.

It’s silly how you all rate streams by platforms that aren’t present in africa, rate acts by collaborations and awards that are not African…. affiliating with ppl who banned you from entering their country… pic.twitter.com/twh3bIGC9c
