Product placement

The Headies (appears): This is an awards show/organization that recognizes artists. The logo and name appear on screen. Removing it would not change what happens in the video. The Headies (acts): The video discusses a category from The Headies awards, the "Rookie of the Year" list. This is a specific event/award that is the subject of the discussion.

Transcript

So the Headies list just came out for this year, right? And there's a certain category that I'm looking at. And I want to know if I'm the only one that thinks like Headies gotta be tripping. So I'm just gonna show you guys and then let you guys tell me where you think the mistake is. It is the Rookie of the Year list. A category that recognizes the most outstanding new artists who achieved a breakthrough during the year under review and has not released a commercially distributed full-length album before the eligibility period. That's a lot of English. But basically, you have to be on here, you have to not dropped an album. I'm guessing like, and Samad have an album? Am I crazy? No good sleep for you. I just don't want to talk.
