Full List: Odumodublvck, Ayra Starr, Mohbad jostle for top honours at 2024 Headies Awards

The 2024 Headies award is here, with the organisers on Wednesday, unveiling the much-anticipated nominations list for its 17th edition.
This year’s lineup showcases a mix of both local and international artistes who have made outstanding contributions to the music industry over the past year.
Leading the nominations is Tochukwu Ojogwu, popularly known as Odumodublvck, who secured an impressive five nominations. Following closely are Oyinkansola Aderibigbe, also known as Ayra Starr, and Crown Uzama, known as Shallipopi, each earning three nominations.
Odumodublvck is also in contention for Best Collaboration, competing with Chike, Wizkid, Zlatan, Asa, and Tiwa Savage with two different entries.
Notably, the late Ilerioluwa Aloba, fondly remembered as Mohbad, received three posthumous nominations, a testament to his lasting impact on the industry despite his death on September 12, 2023.
