cooljoe: It's not about what you sing about... It's about how well arranged and produced your album is... Vocal and lyrically content also come into deep consideration. Tell me how many Nigerian musicians of today can actually scale through those... 2 Likes 1 Share |

johnmattew:Yet she’s never been nominated. Asa is overrated abeg. She sounds just like indie arie and Erika badhu. Nothing exceptional about her voice, her music arrangement or her lyrics. |

African youths especially Nigerians does not recognize talent,the standard is extremely low in this country that's why we have people like naira Marley gaining recognition in a society that's supposed to be civilized. Angelique only has 200k followers on Instagram with her numerous Grammy wins. 4 Likes |

Ishilove:The Celia album is entirely about Celia Cruz. For those who know Angelique very well will admit that the album is a totally different project from her usual thing. I was thrilled she could do "perfect salsa" and I never knew she could sing in Spanish too, even a Peruvian song. We truly have an Angel(ique) of light from Africa, whenever they say Africa is a dark continent, I will tell them that. 2 Likes |

djbussy: Are you kidding me right now... So, when Madonna, Robert Plant, Viola Davis, Gary Oldman, etc, are winning artistic awards over far younger contemporaries, what new generation are they encouraging??!... You mean awards should be given based on childish sentiments instead of artistic delivery, content, and lyrical quality... In what way did Celia not outdo African Giant in all the above??!... You guys need to learn objectivity... Don't come here forming unnecessary patriotism. BTW, I'm probably as young as you are. 1 Like |

Hey the clueless, Angelique Kidjo winning the Grammy beating Burna Boy is still a WIN-WIN for Burna Boy and Nigeria. Why? Because her FATHER is originally from Iseyin in Oyo State, while her mother is from Abeokuta in Ogun State. She confirmed this herself live. Sentiment and bias arguments =DEAD ON ARRIVAL and INVALID. |

[quote author=Sanchez01 post=86139912] This is wrong. Beyoncé, Eminem, MJ's 'Thriller', Taylor Swift's '1989', and even Jay Z have all won the Grammy Album of the year award. Most of the songs on their albums are club bangers, and widely accepted by younger generations. I can't imagine any of Jay Z's, and Eminem songs that will will be accepted by religious leaders. Most educated folks don't even understand Eminem's raps because he is always dissing the world and lacing his materials with double and triple entendres. The category is much more beyond acceptability and the class or category of people your album resonate with. Kidjo will still return and win another next year as always. Modified To those quoting and 'correcting' me about Beyoncé, Em, Jay Z et al, about not winning the world album of the year. NOTE THST I DIDN'T MENTION THE WORLD ALBUM OF THE YEAR BUT ALBUM OF THE YEAR. The criteria remains the same for both while the reach is the only difference. I cited them as winners of similar categories with club bangers as a response to the fellow who stated that your album must appeal to clerics, religious bodies and the UN to win the category. baba, u talk sense jare no be just forming wise elders like these other fellows talking about religious acceptance and other bullshit people wey da win Grammy, Dem sing their song for mosque abi church |
