Oludipe Oluwasanmi David professionally known as Spyro, was one of the artistes that won at the show, earning the ‘Best Collaboration Of The Year’ award through his song remix, ‘Who’s Your Guy’ featuring Tiwa Savage. Spyro who was at the event centre in Atlanta, Georgia, acknowledged Jesus Christ as the one who made him achieve the feat, having made a breakthrough career in 2022. The young artiste who was also nominated in the Next Rated award category but lost it to man of the moment, Asake Mr Money, commended social media influencer and one-time, musician, Tunde Ednut for initiating the remix of ‘Who’s your guy’.
