Why Davido Can't Get A Grammy Nomination - Laureate Of Lines by kanuekpezujr: 6:17am On Nov 27, 2020 |
[img][/img] The poet and lyricist who is known as the "Laureate of Lines" took to his Instagram handle, @laureateoflines1 to explain why he thinks Davido hasn't gotten a Grammy nomination yet. In the post, he admits that Davido is the biggest in Africa, yet he said, "he has succeeded in making himself loud, but the world hasn't understood him yet." He pointed out that songs that gave Nigerians like 'Seal' the Grammy are songs with poetic lyrics. According to him, if Chike and Johnny Drills could get as big as Davido, they might get the Grammy. These were his very words: "Davido said he's the biggest in Africa and I can't dispute that. But I think he has succeeded in making himself loud, but the world hasn't understood him yet. Seal won the Grammy with the song, 'Kiss From A Rose'. Listen to that song, even the title is poetic. Chike and Johnny Drille might get the Grammy if they get as big as Davido. And that explains everything, he needs poetic lyrics in his songs." [img][/img]

If Davido wasnt a rich kid he wouldn't have made it in music. Imagine his first hit "My papa get money My papa get money" Is that one music? |

ChristoBam:Shut up your mouth or name one billionaire's kid struggling in the industry. He only made it by buying peoples song. He dosen't have lyrics, period! He's only lucky to have lots of dumb fans like you who appreciate "sweet nonsense" music |

DonBenny77:Na me Bleep up first quote you sha. Dey tell me to list billionaire's kids struggling. That's the point! They are struggling. No one give a fvck about them. Get rid of this your mentality of hating on the rich cuz that's what you are doing? Guy started in 2012 or so and has been dropping hits back to back from day one. Didn't even have his Father's support in the beginning. Dumb fool like you talking about song buying. Nigga everyone get song writers at a point. I know your default settings would be to argue and say dumb shit but with the little I know about the music industry. I can categorically say everyone buys songs!! At least anyone that has been in the industry for years. Na Davido foolish dey cast himself. Everyone keeps their stuff on a low key. |

ChristoBam:People wey dey do Gang tins na cowardly children Davido can never turn up on his own both in real life and in music. If Davido na artist make him go do live performance or freestyle. No be to dey shout jump upandan tell us how much you and your papa get, Just sing live for 20 mins only. You and davido na small pikin n i no care if him dey feed you. Like "back when i was broke yo" Was he ever broke? Fake artist..... Buy person song sing the person story as well |

DonBenny77: Sensible people see relying on your parents for everything as being broke! Your issue with Davido is very obvious and it's his father's wealth. Go and search Davido's live performance on YouTube and you go see as e plenty for ground. The only performance I've physically watched of Davido in my life was in Ado while I was in Eksu. He preformed Live!!! No dey talk wetin u no sabi abeg!! |
