The 17th Headies Awards paid a heartfelt tribute to the late Afrobeat sensation Mohbad, recognizing his profound influence on both the music industry and his devoted fans.
An emotional video montage highlighted some of his most iconic music videos and told the story of his rise from the streets of Lagos to a prominent figure in the Afrobeat scene.
The tribute emphasized that Mohbad’s impact extended beyond his music, as he ignited a cultural movement.
The tribute message read: “Some voices are too powerful to fade, and some spirits shine with such brilliance that they leave an unforgettable mark. Mohbad was one of those stars. From the streets of Lagos to the hearts of millions, his music became more than just sound—it was a movement… Rest in peace, Mohbad, your light will continue to shine.”
As a mark of recognition, Mohbad was posthumously awarded the ‘Best Street-hop Artist’ for his hit song “Ask About Me.”
His family, including his wife Wunmi, son Liam, and younger brother Adura, accepted the award on his behalf, ensuring his lasting legacy is honored.
