The star told his followers on Twitter that he doesn't believe he belongs in the category because most of the nominees are more successful than him.

According to TshisaLIVE, the rapper said he doubts that he'll win the award because he lost out on a SAMA to an artist that only had nine songs. Youngsta's album had 22 songs at that time.

"If I can't win a Sama against someone who had nine songs, then how am I going to win artist of the decade against guys that have been doing this successfully since 2010."

Hip-hop heads also shared their thoughts on what YoungstaCPT wrote after his nomination. Check out some of their comments below:

"Hasn't been 10 years in the mainstream. I think these are honourable mentions. This award probably belongs to AKA or K.O. But We Shall See."
