your question is like asking if there's any big deal in Nigeria winning the world cup, yes there's, there is o

you see, world cup coming to Nigeria is a big deal because it has never came to us, Europeans have been winning it, so it's no longer a big deal to them, even the ones who never won doesn't see it as big as we see it because their neighbors have won it

so Grammy is big in this part of the world

The aim of this thread is to know why Africans see winning Grammy as everything

I want to believe that Burna album winning the Grammy has a lot to do with Diddy co-producing that album.

Also Wizkid Grammy win has a lot to do with Beyonce featuring in the song.

Ghanaian Shata wale also ft Beyonce so don't judge them that way, Brown skin girls is the root of Africa history and wiz kid murdered the beat with good lyrics, Nigeria are highly talented if not for bad government, if it should be Yahoo story they wl like to call Nigeria names.

Award means a prize or other mark of recognition given in honour of an achievement.

Why the hype on Grammy Awards?

The way we Africans see and do things always got me puzzled.
We see Grammy Award as god. I'm not in anyway hating those who won. But how me celebrate this Grammy is what I don't understand.

In America. Most American acts don't see Grammy as anything.
I remember one rapper who was given a Grammy Award and he rejected it.

Last year an American rapper pee on a Grammy Award (something most Africans see as god)
Few hours ago another American rapper took to his Twitter to write F88k Grammys.

These people a different way of reasoning I don't know if it's because of their environment because environment can't influence one's reasoning.

Winning Grammy does not make you bigger or better than others.
Not winning Grammy does not mean your crafts are useless.

I know over 10 American rappers who never won a Grammy but you can't talk about Hip Pop and you don't mention their names.

Imagine someone like Nas just won his first Grammy after how many years in the industry? He never made it a big deal.

I can't believe I read all these senseless rubbish you wrote... What do you intend to achieve with this nonsense?

You are very smart. The truth is P. Diddy orchestrated the whole Grammy award for Burna Boy, i watched a video of P. Diddy shouting in the studio that the Album was going to win the Grammy. He kept saying it so hard and hard, this was months months ago. I said P. Diddy is up yo something.

He started hyping Burna boy and eventually the award came. I am not saying Burna boi is not good, but trust me. There are other albums i believe should have been included in that category and they would have won Burna boi.

P. Diddy did a good back door job.

Grammy is all knowing the right record label to sign to.

If your record label has influence in the music industry the artist will surely will a grammy.

Grammy has nothing to do with good songs

Lot of good artists are independent, they will never win a grammy until they join the click but that also comes with changing your music.

I started watching MTV in 94 and I can tell you grammy is not hype.

Winning it deserves even more accolade.
Bro,I started watching MTV as far back in 1992. Yo!MTV Raps hosted by Ed Lover,Doctor Dre,T-Money and Fab 5 Freddy was my favourite programme then. The Grammys were a big deal then. I remember when Arrested Development won Best New Artist and Best Rap Duo for Tennessee back in the 35th Annual Grammy awards then. But I've boycotted the Grammys since 2015 sha oooooo...2021 edition inclusive.
Nor mind the OP. I'm very sure he's a Davido d**k sucker.

for an African, Grammy means a lot. do you know that burna boy can easily get a green card in the US? just search for ''Eb visa" on Google, it's the same visa people like chiamanda and wole shoyinka used in getting permanent residence in the US.

Africans generally have inferiority complex with white people, that's why they worship anything white
Africans need to stop longing to be involved, because whites see us like slaves and thus they won't include us.
I repeat, those whites sing nonsense compare to what we sing in Africa here.
Tell me what Cardi B sings please if not rubbish compare to Qdot and that old Apala man, I don't even know his name.
Whenever I listen to Oyinbo people's songs, I usually hear noises and grumbling, and yet those nonsense will get awards.

I think the Grammys are nothing more than some gigantic promotional machine for the music industry. They cater to a low intellect and they feed the masses. They don't honor the arts or the artist for what he created. It's the music business celebrating itself. That's basically what it's all about.

It's really not about the music, or the musician, it's just a brand and it's the brand they're selling.


You're very smart, my daughter.
