pls can someone tell me why MIL and Better time not selected....ayam not understanding


There is a cut off date for albums released to be available for selection

August 31
To allow sufficient time for preparation, the cutoff date for eligible recordings will move from September 30 to August 31. This change means the eligibility period for the 2020 awards is eleven months (October 1, 2019 – August 31, 2020), a month shorter than usual.

The guy might win it, when he got nominated for grammy he hadn't released twice as tall and with how lit twice as tall is I no sure say anybody for that him category go near.


One of the reason he lost last year's own was that the person they both were nominated in same category he copyrighted her song, the lady that they bought competed in the grammy was the original singer of anybody by burna boy

Lol not that easy.

Some of those people on that list have won Grammy before and some have been nominated more than 5 times.

I don’t care if he wins or not, the recognition for that nomination for his work speaks enough volume.

Some people on that same list have been nominated more than 5 times, and some already won the award in the past. So calm down.

You may be right about my 9ja mentality.

But have you considered the market of those peers? Angelique Kidjo sells out concerts across the globe with majority white audiences.

Burna does not.

You cannot ignore the white bias that there is to the perception of African music. They are the gatekeepers at the end of the day and believe it or not, they love ‘pop’. Or you don’t remember when even African Americans were pushing #boycottgrammys? Sorry no calming down wink

Bro, Grammy is just an award but arguably the greatest music award. For that, winning is no big deal, nomination is enough recognition.

There’s an Afro beat band on that same list who have been single Fela style of song and they are based in NY, and there are white and black in their band.

Anyways, my point being that. I don’t care if he wins or not, being nominated twice back to back for your own work is enough for him.

The likes of Femi who’s been nominated Atleast 4-5 times but never won any... Burna have proven to be one of the best artist out of Naija, no my baby my baby, pangolo song.

And this will humble naija artist to work harder cos Burna has raised that bar twice. They have to do catching up and still singing my baby my baby, or para fans whatever.

I’m hoping to see Brymo on the world scene too, Asa too, and maybe Simi. The rest are just making noice with no substance.

... also remember Lizzo came from no where and shattered glasses, and won Grammys in no time. Her songs wasn’t for the white folks.

It’s quite funny a lot of Nigerians keeps comparing artist. Each artist have a goal and work hard to it. Burnaboy wants a Grammy so bad that’s why he released his album to be eligible. Wizkid, davido and the rest don’t seem to really care about the Grammys that’s why they’re not eligible. And to those mentioning Wizkid’s nomination, Wizkid wasn’t nominated.

grin grin cheesy grin grin grin ‘my baby my baby’.

Yes yes I agree with you really, but it’s one thing to be one of many to be nominated, and one of much fewer to win.

I’m not saying explicitly that these gatekeepers look at race, but they do look at the culture. Let’s be real, Cardi B won a grammy - trendy. Childish Gambino - trendy. Lizzo - trendy.

You cannot tell me as a somebody who understands music, as I sense you do, that any of these artists are in your top 3 rankings for their own respective genres.

But Burna’s music has depth, identity and longevity. As in timeless longevity. The type that u tell people to shotop when your fav song still comes on how many years later. He’s a virtuoso in his own genre.

So we cannot be settling for ‘nominations nominations’ and think that’s good enough, because some all white board of white men ‘feel like’ our artists haven’t exceeded the target. Which target again. That Fela was nominated severally without winning is telling us something, I think. They have a pattern of behaviour.

My guy, just let him not win. Hm. Everywhere go scatter finish. Sorry.
