K.O is not happy with how he was treated by some of the MTV Africa Music Awards organisers. The rapper, who was a nominee at this year's event, took to Twitter to share his grievances.

Good morning... I don't normally do this but I feel compelled to express how I really feel this time re: #MTVMAMA2015

I'm not talking about the entire MTVBase organisation, but some individuals there wanna play ‘God’ & use the platform for their own agendas

went into MAMA2015 fully cognizant that i was at the bottom of 'their' priorities list, I had long made peace with not winning on the night

Felt like 'their' agenda was to create a discriminative perception that my 2014/15 run was palpably a far cry from that of my counterparts

hence why I was not included in 'their' build up activities/PR and in the initial performers' list until the week of the awards

All the winners that night absolutely deserved their respective accolades! I congratulate them for their astounding impact - all fair I feel

But its evil of some of the organizing individuals to blatantly make certain nominees and talent at the ceremonial festivities feel unworthy

Thank you to some of the folks in management at MTVBase for trying their best to rectify things as they were aware of my team's displeasure

Nonetheless, even though I didn't bag a trophy, the boy BODY BAGGED the night with an illustrious yet super short performance!!!

One thing you should know about me is that I put God and my Art first! Everything else is miscellaneous...
— K.O (@MrCashtime) July 21, 2015

Now that I got that off my chest, back to the grind! Love to always the fans and those rooting for me! God bless my team & my country🙌🏾 #KO

We know that K.O never goes on rants, so this must have really bothered him.
