Mr. Logic, who had a key role in the organization of the Bass Awards, which fulfilled similar objectives a few years prior, claims that he took the initiative to organize the awards after realizing the principal players had abandoned the endeavor. "I was just keeping an eye on the Bass Awards organizers until [Stip] posted something. It's a concept I've had for ages. To be honest, I helped establish the Bass Awards. I was hoping to jump in when the Bass Awards went a little quiet, but I wasn't sure Bulldog and Stip would return with anything at this point until Stip said that dancehall and reggae should be outlawed," he stated.
He pointed out that the scheme's board will include of individuals with technical expertise in dancehall and reggae music, not merely pals in the business. Following the July debut, Mr. Logic announced that November 2024 will see the primary awards event.
