A well deserved win to Kidjo.
The content of her songs are out of this world. She is a mix of Maya Angelou and Miriam Makeba.

Music lovers and genuine content critics like myself would have given up on the credibility and essence of the Grammy Awards if another undeserving artiste had won this.

Sentiments aside, Nigeria is yet to replicate another Fela Kuti in the global music sphere.

Fela is the only Nigerian deserving of a Grammy.
Because music is not about dancesteps or groupie trends but about a movement, a message, reawakening a consciousness and yet the melody from real musical instruments.
This is a reality lost on today's Nigerian artistes aside from Asá who still lacks in consistency.

As an African act, till your music can be accepted by Pastors, Imams, Youths, elders, global leaders, United Nations and illiterates, then you stand a chance of being an African Album or winning a foreign award in Music.

Nigeria and Nigerians must understand that club bangers do not translate to foreign awards in global music.

If I've been listening to this great woman as far back as primary school over many years ago and now people who did not know Moses rise up to complain that she won over the boy, I just begin to wonder.
This woman has been consistent and talented.
She is in the same level with Miriam Makeba and Yvonne Chaka Chaka with few people like Onyeka Onwenu and Christie Essien Igbokwe coming close with all due respect and sense of patriotism

God bless us all, amen

Watch the interview very well.

She said her mother claim they are from Iseyin and perhaps returned as slaves to Benin republic

She said her grandmother is from Abeokuta.

Listen carefully.

Her mother claimed or her grandmother came from Abeokuta, what does that tell you
