Emtee Claims Dominance As Metro Awards Nomination Renews Spotlight. Emtee has reignited conversation around his place in the country’s hip-hop hierarchy after celebrating yet another Metro FM Music Awards nomination with a bold and unapologetic statement.
Taking to social media, the award-winning rapper asserted his dominance in the industry, pointing to a consistent track record of success that he believes sets him apart from his peers. “Nominated at the metros AGAIN. No project of mine hasn’t won an award. I don’t even see fonem on line ups, nominated, setting trends and being a big homie to those coming after us. Mane stop playing with me,” he wrote, underlining a career he views as both decorated and unmatched.
The statement did not stop at celebration. Emtee used the moment to draw a sharp comparison between himself and other artists, suggesting that many of his contemporaries are absent from key industry spaces. He added that he rarely sees “fonem” featured on major line-ups, earning nominations, or influencing the culture at the level he claims to operate.
Beyond the competitive tone, Emtee also positioned himself as a mentor figure within South African hip-hop. Referring to himself as a “big homie,” he highlighted his role in guiding and inspiring the next generation of artists entering the scene. The comment reflects a dual narrative often present in his public persona: both a chart-topping artist and a seasoned figure intent on shaping the future of the genre.
Emtee’s remarks arrive just ahead of the Metro FM Music Awards ceremony, set to take place tomorrow at the Durban International Convention Centre. As anticipation builds, his comments are likely to intensify debates about who truly leads the culture and what metrics define greatness in today’s music industry.
This year, Emtee’s nomination comes from his featured appearance on Abazazi Bafunani, a track by Big Zulu that has gained significant traction across the local music scene. The recognition adds another milestone to a catalogue that continues to secure industry acknowledgement.
