Can you bet on this?


Even add African giant + twice as tall vs made in Lagos

TAT debuted at 58 on the Billboard 200... MIL debuted at 80... It peaked higher a year later .. I talk STRICTLY based on facts... In every other official chart TAT is the highest charting Nigerian Album ever !

Lol funny U. Why didn't he 'run pr' for soundman EP in 2019 and was instead 'running pr' for burnas African giant. You're now calling it PR cos it wasn't Ur faves album. A music critic doesn't run PR like dt. They'd rather just say a project is good dn call it "the best album of this year". Dts a huge statement dt defines their integrity as a music journalist.

Go to Twitter and search for keywords ... based on Joey Akan and soundman...

If according to you, he ran for African Giant, why didn't he run for Twice As Tall...

But I thought Tiwa savage was nominated for the Grammies a few years back. Tem's isn't the first female to be nominated, Tiwa is. Thump's up to wizkid, he is unarguably one of the best thing to come out of Africa.

You made statement dt TAT was rated over MIL by all music critics. I said dts not the case & MIL was ranked over TAT in some magazines and then I mentioned dt our own local critic, Joey, also rated MIL higher and named it the best Nigerian album of 2020. He didn't give dt title to TAT.
But u said it's because he's a WizKid fan. I now told U was he a wizkid fan too when he named African Giant the best album of 2019? He named African giant the best work of 2019 hands down and also had many superlatives to describe it, just like he had for MIL. Joey is everybody's fan, he always praises davido, but he's not biased about their music.

Just rest abeg. I don tire for argument. WizKid no even post the Grammy nomination sef. He's not crazy about awards. He himself has said many times awards are political and it's people patting their friends on the back.
In my opinion numbers don't lie and we all know MIL did more numbers dn any album of 2020. Facts only. The response to his tour is enough to shut anyone up. He didn't get such a response in 2019 when he dropped Soundman. The difference is dt in 2020 he dropped an amazing album. The numbers, the awards, musicians, producers and critics have also attested to dt.

Nigerians are quite gullible and easily impressionable. Are these the categories where Sade Adu and SEAL won(both are of Nigerians descent and Sade was even born in Ibadan). Imagine the noise about Grammy categories made for outsiders. WTH is global sound/album categories in the mainstream music.

Wizkid won from the main category (Best Music Video) last year with BSG. Nigerians like you still went on to discredit him, saying "he didn't win", "he wasn't nominated" bla bla bla, until Grammy sent his plaque down to Nigeria and he posted it. Y'all find a way to discredit everything out of hate. So this year's agenda is that he was nominated for categories that belong to "outsiders" abi. Continue.

Don't let naija paid "bambiala" media fool you. It has been debunked. There are no records of her nomination on Grammy's website. She was only sent a certificate through email for her effort on Coldplay's album. It's not a nomination. Producers like Rexxie and co were also sent same for participating in "Twice As Tall" by Burna Boy. I think Yemi Alade has one of those Certificates as well. It wasn't a nomination just a "shout out" so to say.

Music video is the work of the director . I am not sold on anything about Grammy that is not about singing or song writing. I have no qualms with him winning and happy for him winning but I prefer the mainstream award not all the side shows. Sokiru Adepoju has won Gramny award way back before Wizkid started singing but it was in a lesser recognized category the reason why Nigerians didnt have too much to celebrate. Also the reason why Seun Kuti cane out bluntly that music video category is a sideshow. That only himself,Burna, Feni and KSA are the only ones with real . Gramny nomination.

Which other official chart? Bring them on. Not reviews ooo... Charts!. Made in Lagos buried Twice As Tall even African Giant. I'm glad you mentioned the word "peaked". Bring out all their peaks on those official charts and compare and also number of weeks spent on those charts.

Winning a Grammy doesn't necessarily mean you sing well or your voice is good. Grammys are actually overrated and the real talented people aren't appreciated. Some singers even reject it these days
Yeah I remember the case of rapper J Cole.
People avoided collabo with him because he outwardly detested a Grammy.
But nevertheless we should celebrate them for achieving such a feat. E no easy at all.
P.S: they are still aspirants for the trophy, not winners.

Lol... So music video is the work of a director but Beyoncé, Blue Ivy and Wizkid all received plaques. That you are not sold for the category is your personal opinion doesn't mean it's a side show. In fact it's one of the categories with a lot of focus and always very competitive. Seun Kuti and the likes are just noise makers and attention seekers. Is he a member of the recording academy for him to know which Grammy nomination is real or fake, mainstream or less of it. Does he even know the criteria to qualify for these Grammy categories. The last time I checked it's the same gold karat for every awardee. Smh
