Just logged onto the LEA web site and noticed that Scientific name has been officially removed from the list of nominees in the Best Hip-Co Category! Only four nominees are now running for "Best Hip-Co" title instead of five nominees.. BEST HIPCO ARTIST
Luckay Buckay
Takun J Raw Pekin Santos
At this point! I don't think it makes any difference anyway….
What ever the LEA committee ve decided to do I hope everything worked out for the best, especially for the artist (Scientific)
Let this be a lesson learned for all Liberians! Especially those people who can start the drama or help spread it (Complaining, Pointing Fingers) and then hide! N be on the side watching (spectators n act like they didn't start anything) "I don't want no drama".. Hmmm
If only we all were supporting/encouraging each other from the start, instead of putting words in other people mouths or heads. Maybe Scientific would have accepted that nomination! You never know.. Let this be a lesson please..
Thanks for stopping by my blog spot! Be Inspire! Be safe!
Rumor has it on social network (FB) that Liberian artists are not being respected or promoted good enough by the Liberian Entertainment Awards Organization. Some folks claimed that some of their favorite artists were not nominated. And also, Scientific, a Liberian rapper who is based in Ghana should not have been nominated in the "Best Hip-Co" category because he is a hip hop artist.
To answer some of their concerns:
Respect should come from both sides!
Respect must be earned! Keep in mind
Promotions: Artists should invest their time in social media and manage their own promotions or have your record company do it for you or personally reach out to the LEA team. LEA do promotions on FB and on their personal web page, but I am not sure if its free of charge on their personal page. Artists shouldn't expect the LEA organization to promote their work automatically. The LEA organization shouldn't be responsible for that so keep that in mind.
Also, Here is what I found out:
If you go on the LEA Fan Page https://www.facebook.com/liberianentertainmentawards you will see that the LEA Organization tried to encourage people to nominate their favorite entertainers. Here is what they wrote: Sept 2013
Moving on!
What is Liberian Hip Co - From my understanding Liberian Hip-Colloquial! Liberian English Blend with the influence of American Hip Hop and R&B
Also, I did some research on the rapper "Scientific" and found this article about the artist as the "Best Hip Co Rapper" /Hip pop Rapper
here is the link: Below Check it out for yourself
Well, in some of "Scientific" rap music featuring various artists he sometimes refer himself as a Liberian, "Africa's Best" and as a Hip Hop Artist
Check out these Videos: You will find out what I am talking about:

In General: My Advice: Be Inspired!
Some Liberian folks can really take some things way too personal and to a whole another level. This plenty complaining has got to stop in our community. We need to learn how to read and follow directions.
Also, I think the problem here is: Liberians are struggling for their identity in the industry and until we find ourselves that is the only way we all are going to move the Liberian Entertainment industry forward and in a positive way.
I hope that I answer some of your questions!
