Winning a Grammy is good for the individual
But our young people need to free their minds from colonial mentality

Grammy awards cannot and do not validate African music


Whether Oyinbo like it or not should not matter to US

I don't see any Oyinbo looking for awards in Africa

What is wrong with your heads

Try using it

What we see more and more is musicians changing their style so Oyinbo can approve and callling it African Music

Commercial success is good
But what is not African is not African

It's funny how a lot of shits called songs are being nominated even wining grammies this days,in the 90's we have a lot of great vocalists that were able to dole out great timeless and evergreen hits from time to time with a significant numbers of fans base all around the world,yet all they could get was Grammy nominations
KC and Jojo or Jodeci and other R&B groups of the 90's with all the success and the accolades never won grammy,but these days one meaningless song without good lyrical concept will just win Grammy award that was sculptured by one oluwole artist.

Where she dey fat go?

unite4real:


You don;t need to insult. my answer is TIWA

Cap!!!
Same Tiwa. Tiwa doesn't come close.. I even think say you will say Asa. person wey write song for Rihanna wey enter top 3 for usa billboard top song and was nominated for Oscar award talkless of all her achievements in the music industry... Baba no female artist for naija fit compete with that girl vocally and lyrically currently except Asa... Why you think say Rihanna, Beyonce ,Adele and Justin Bieber respect her??..

mariovito:

Seagodess:

Okay I hear you.

But then, her biggest record till date happens to be an afrobeats track, the one with Wizkid.

TechBaron:
You said her only achievement was Essence with Wiz Kid.

I just wanted to correct that narrative.

Tems is a great artist.

Was a great artist..

She should rejuvenate herself

Singing 🎶 primary school rhymes all the time won't work

That's no bad performance there. More grace, girl. The world's there to be conquered. Go get it.

By your judgment
Zakir Hussain, Bela Fleck, and Edgar Meyer won't have won the 2024 Grammy Award for Best Global Music Performance for their contribution to "Pashto" featuring Rakesh Chaurasia.

Awesome artist.

Water 💦 by Tyla beats all Tems songs combined

Shalipopi might even win Grammys before Tems

I no dey follow u argue again..I can clearly see your type of music taste.. 😂😂. I dey waste my time before as I dey follow argue... Your type are the one that listen to loud beat instead of lyrics and vocal... The type of song u listen to are for clubs, beer parlour, bar.. Comparing water to try me and damages..

A lot of Nigerians never expected Tems to blow the way she did. They never expected her to become as popular as she is today. That's why you see them queuing up on this thread to castigate her. Her success disappoints them till date. First born and bred Nigerian female to win a Grammy no be beans. If e easy, make others do am


They did the same thing to Burna Boy and his success ended up disappointing them too.

Learn to notice Greatness from its early stages so that you won't end up criticizing it when it becomes apparent.

Music is not measured based on your standard bro...

Tems needs to rejuvenate herself is as simple as that..

Currently she's the biggest and the best female artist in Africa.

fnep2smooth:
Na old glory this girl still dey use... No new hit song.

Naija just love her for her sexy body nothing special about her music

You are outdated.

jaxxy:
vocally she's average or too carefree but her songs for some reason are appealing to many.

It's something about her voice that appeals to them I guess, but in terms of the actual music, I just can't see what she's singing.

If she actually had better songs with real melody, she could probably be really good.

Exactly
Zero innovation
Zero creativity

na only this nairaland we for dey see truth

if u dey find truth come nairaland no body send your papa

The same Nigerians hating on tems are the ones who call that Seyi vibez noise music
