Your analysis is quite logical which I appreciate. However, you can't compare a non American competing with Americans on their soil. Many have also beat that though for example Drake originally from Canada.
In this case, Burna would be competing in the World song category where the likes of Sunny Ade, Femi and Seun Kuti have been previously opportuned to grace. I'm quite optimistic he wins because he is truly the African Giant. He pronounced it to reality on himself.
PureFace1:
Nickiminaj, Snoop Dog and many other big American artists are still without a Grammy but you are here talking about Burna Boy winning Grammy

Even Akon is still without a Grammy

If Akon can still be without Grammy despite his fame in USA and around the World imagine Burna Boy lol

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.

9ice deserves Grammy. He has been consistent in his career...since 9ice can't win it anymore then I wish oluwaburna wins it.

So you tell me!!

Your comment shows that you're a dumb ass and a big tard. He is black?! Is kendrick lamar or Lilwayne white?? Why did they win grammys like its a piece of cake?! . I case you didn't know, there are lots of African artists who get nominations on Grammy, even drake ft wizkid one dance got a Grammy nomination.

Maybe u are not a Yoruba, so u wouldn't understand what 9ice said in his music. But that guy is one of the few musicians we have that sing with deep lyrics that make sense. Even elder people in Yoruba land listen to his music because of his lyrics.

9ice remains my number 1 till today. Followed by oluwaburna and Simi in female category.

So you tell me!!

Youssou N’Dour, Ali Farka Touré, and Angelique Kidjo are some of the black Africans who have won the Grammys.

Angelique Kidjo even has 3 Grammys.

So, you can see that it possible for black Africans to also win Grammy Awards.

However, an African who wants to win must put in extra energy than their counterparts from other continents.

Global awards don't come easy for Africans, especially. I don't know why. But where an album can win a Grammy for an American singer, an African singer might need 4-5 consistently great albums to even get a nomination.

But can Burna Boy win? I doubt it. If the likes of Femi Anikulapo Kuti who command great stage performances (the likes of which you hardly see in today's world where most of our artistes are helped by studio tricks) has not even won a Grammy before, I doubt if Burna Boy can win it.

He could help himself by doing more live shows to convince people of his talent. He could do more for himself by enrolling in a music class to have a better understanding of music.

Re: Can Burna Boy Win Grammy? by Greatzeus(m): 7:05pm On Aug 31, 2019
Grammy is not about good music. I am speaking for hip-hop. 80% of all hip-hop songs or albums who have won Grammy are wack or sell out or mainstream ass lickers. Whites hate hardcore or street rap that's why the greatest rap artists of all time never won it.
Grammy is not about great music per se,it's more about Mainstream (White Americans) acceptance,validation and vote.
By mainstream I mean American Media Giants and White population.

You obviously don't know what good music is... maybe you prefer all this "I love you baby" lyrics.


Are you dumb or just being mischievous?

I don't listen to Burna Boy's trash which makes little sense when I could listen to Fela and Bob Marley.

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

Now that Burna Boy has been nominated for the Grammy, can we take a look back at this?
