Nothing is impossible i must say if you belief in God and in yourself!!!

Burna who happens to be criticizing his fellow Nigerian musicians of craving for international collaborations is now job hunting for recognition

What an illusion

It's possible but he needs to step up his game very well.

Sunny Ade and Kuti are Grammy nominees but never clinched it

This made me remember the words of Martin Luther King Jr,

As long as the white men keep making you think you are worth nothing, you can never do anything or become anything.

So please, Nigerians stop thinking like a black man.

Grammy is another ball game entirely,he’s not even close,even Akon that has 5 nominations didn’t win any.
Re: Can Burna Boy Win Grammy? by Iamtflame(m): 8:45pm On Aug 30, 2019
He can. He has been performing great in the international scene recently so he could win a Grammy some day.

45%likely. Grammy Award is a different ball game. Its not something like Afrima Or MTV. But if Burnaboy could appear on Jimmy Kimmel live show and Trevor Noah then its 45%likely for him to bag the award. Let's just hope for the First, that is appearing for Nomination.

Y not, burna is doing pretty good at the moment.
Internationally he can be reckoned with.

But then, when it comes to Grammy it's a diff ball game, if the like of 9ice can still be dreaming of Grammy till date despite his back to back hit from the early 20's. I doubt if burna can make it tru.
If he does then it's a plus for Africans music industry.



Y'all should stop mentioning 9ice. With those incarnation-like lyrics. Wetin he dey sing
Re: Can Burna Boy Win Grammy? by Thablownmindset: 8:48pm On Aug 30, 2019
of course he can, it's obvious Afrobeat is gaining ground even beyond boundaries we have ever imagined����.
After Wiz, I will root for Burna, Davido and Mreazi to get a grammy award because I know very soon it will come to pass��

Cardi winning best rap album for invasion of privacy an insult toghe rap genre
it was a game plan. They wanted her to make history where her biggest competition, Nicki Minaj failed. It was even a very bad year for music. Cardi didn't have any competition in that category. Her only competition was Drake but they refused to nominate Drake's album in the best rap album category just to create an easy for Cardi since the other nominees didn't have hype. Cardi was the biggest breakout star of that season.


Anyway, Burna can get it but the question is.... In what category? Burna used to be underrated but he's overrated now. African Giant was so monotonous. It felt like I was listening to same song for over 35 minutes. He's receiving praise because he doesn't have a competition in Nigeria. He's slightly better than the others and the ones who are equally good as him (E.g Patoranking) are too lazy to create albums... Burna needs to shed some Fela weight and be himself for once

The best person from Nigeria to try and win the grammy is wizkid. Not only has he featured artists from America they have also featured him. Who be burna boy? grin grin

Davido and especially Wizkid went all out to be famous, chasing foreign celebrities. They create so much buzz about themselves regular especially with the way they spend money flashily and so on. This is to draw attention

Burna Boy's different. International celebrities want to colabo with him. Koffee, a Jamaican artist has covered his song Ye and others have sampled his beats. Even in Nigeria, I doubt he's made a third of the noise either Wizkid and Davido has made.

He's a lot like Messi. He's a natural genius with the ball while Ronaldo works his butts off to be as excellent as he is.

so appearing in Jimmy kemmel is a sure ticket to grammy? Even j cole and Nicki Minaj don't have grammy. Nigerians and their over sentimentality. You guys think everything is luck

Beg to differ on the nominations for the Best HipHop/Rap album, the strongest contender was Travis Scott. His album Astroworld was applauded and his tours or shows are so energetic and wild. As for Burna Boy, he is following a different lane as per ‘ Afrofusion’ He is defining his own sound and Fela is his foundation. He could win a Grammy but he will need to continue pushing his craft whether the Grammies recognise him or not.
