Nota Drops Unfiltered Remarks On Metro FM Awards: \u201cThese Awards Are Bought!\u201d Controversial music commentator Nota Baloyi has dropped a no-filter bombshell on the 2026 Metro FM Music Awards, declaring the entire event a rigged game where fairness is an illusion and complaining is pointless. <\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cThere are rules, and the rules are that it\u2019s not fair. Life is not fair. Do you understand what I\u2019m saying?\u201d <\/em>Nota stated during his latest rant on the Music Pulse Podcast. <\/p>\n

He wasted no time driving the point home with raw examples. \u201cYou\u2019re tall. You\u2019re taller than Karishma. It\u2019s not fair,\u201d <\/em>he said. \u201cSome people are prettier than other people. It\u2019s not fair. Life is not fair.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

Nota <\/a>then turned his attention to one of the most debated categories, slamming the nomination process. \u201cWorst styled artist gets nominated for best styled artist. It wasn\u2019t fair that she was nominated in the first place. It wasn\u2019t fair.\u201d <\/em><\/p>\n

His message was clear and uncompromising: when the system is stacked against you, stop expecting justice. Adapt to the reality instead.<\/p>\n

\u201cYou understand? These awards are bought. Ricky Rick told you kids that,\u201d <\/em>Nota reminded everyone, referencing the late rapper\u2019s past expos\u00e9s on industry politics. \u201cSo buy the award, but don\u2019t complain about it.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

The fiery remarks have ignited fierce debate across social media following the conclusion of this year\u2019s Metro FM Awards. While some artists celebrated wins amid strong fan support and radio dominance, others were left questioning how certain nominations and victories came about. <\/p>\n

Nota\u2019s unapologetic stance cuts straight to the truth many have quietly questioned within the South African music industry, that success is often shaped more by image, financial muscle, industry connections, and calculated deals than by raw talent alone. His remarks mirror sentiments once voiced by Riky Rick during his Metro FM Awards acceptance speech.<\/p>\n

Boss Zonke didn\u2019t hold back, pointing out that a significant amount of quality music never reaches the airwaves simply because emerging artists lack the funds to pay for airplay. He urged young musicians to shift their focus away from traditional platforms, encouraging them to build momentum online instead of chasing radio spins or award recognition. In his view, the system is deeply flawed, with corruption playing a major role in how music is selected and celebrated.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
