“Complete Compilation: Victors of the 2023 Headies Awards”

Date:

On the evening of September 3, 2023, the 16th edition of the Headies Award unfolded in Atlanta, Georgia, marking its second consecutive year in this location.

Since its establishment in 2006, the Headies has consistently played a significant role in chronicling the remarkable achievements within the Nigerian music industry. It has achieved this through its prestigious awards, which have evolved to become the most coveted honors in the Nigerian music scene.

During this memorable night, Rema, the shining star from Mavin Records, emerged as the most celebrated artist, clinching three prestigious awards. Notably, his speech on the resurgence of Nigerian music left a lasting impression and stood out as a highlight of the event.

In addition to Rema’s success, other notable winners included Asake, who secured two awards, including the highly coveted Next Rated Award. The internationally acclaimed Burna Boy also took home two awards, one for Afrobeat Single of the Year and the other for Best R&B Song.
