Kwesta is livid with #MMA16 snub: The bullsh*t must be called

Rapper Kwesta has joined hundreds of his fans in lambasting the Metro FM Music Awards for seemingly snubbing him, saying that it was time for "bullsh*t" to be called.

Kwesta, who went to the awards with four nominations, left the ceremony empty handed and bitterly disappointed.

Outraged fans took to social media to demand answers and made the rapper's snub one of the most talked about topics on Twitter.

• Inside Riky Rick's #MMA16 warRapper Riky Rick was praised as a 'hero' and 'advocate of the people' after he used his acceptance speech at the Metro FM Music Awards to lambaste the music industry and even the awards themselves. 

The usually laid-back Kwesta was not impressed at being overlooked and took to Twitter to vent his frustration.

Never been a bitter fella. We keep working, we just about music. But in the end the bullshit must be called. Just got 4 missed calls from me

Kwesta had earlier warned fans that if he walked away empty-handed his fan's should not "buy it", and he retweeted his warning in the aftermath of the loss.

Riky Rick had earlier shaded the station and the awards ceremony by suggesting that some awards had been paid off. Kwesta retweeted Riky Rick's Twitter outbursts and posted a message about his situation, labelling it "the ngud, the bad and the money".

• 'F*ck 'em!' Turns out Riky Rick wasn't the only one angry at #MMA16Riky Rick may have caused a social media storm with his outbursts at the Metro FM Music Awards, but fellow rapper Khuli Chana was not far behind with a rant of his own.  

Meanwhile, a number of high-profile celebs including Nandi Madida, Black Coffee, L-Tido and Culoe De Song took to social media to share their frustration at the awards and "corruption" in the music industry at the moment.

Corrupting the music industry is the reason why we stil dn't hv the equivalent of an International star like our Trevor Noah/Charlize Theron

It's possible to become a success without compromising ur morals. Payola,casting couch,sabotaging others is not necessary with talent & God.
