E dey na. Big Chances D'or

When you watch the matches you begin to wonder when all these big chances happened

The matter weak me. You go dey find big chances.

eph12:
Yeah Bruno tops this one every year

We need an award for this stat.

Englishisamust:
Debruyne wey come back from injury last 3 weeks don get almost like 5 assists. Let him keep creating is useless chances.

eph12:
See them running around, talking bad about Bruno because expert17 is not here to drop facts

Big chances created.

CapitalCee:
We need to quickly cash out on Bruno now, while we can. The guy de dey on kolos now

But they might end up getting a downgrade.

BlueRayDick:
So shey Tatibiji wan boycott grammy's going forward ni abi Davido will keep cooking and submitting his work with faith too?

Na him sabi. Wetyn I know be say na rubbish Shakti sing

BlueRayDick:
The problem now is instead of Davido and his fans taking it in good faith and go back to the drawing board; some of them online have bee calling for Grammy's boycott from all afrobeat artistes.

There's this Sope guy that has been wailing since daybreak calling naija artistes to stop submitting their work.

I believe Davido and his fans invested so much emotions in those 3 nominations and that's why they've found it hard to accept the outcome. He should go back to the studio to cook and avoid all those Iskaba, keke napep rhymes. Next year is another year.

Like u rightly said, after the loss Burna had to go back and became intentional with his music and gave it crossover appeal. I believe same can work for Davido

Person wey win Best album no even use drawing board. He just wake up enter studio. Them give am award.

E sure me say he just submit with faith

nihilistjnr:
No, I said it has to have crossover appeal. You might want to google what that means.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grammy_Award_for_Best_Global_Music_Album

Look at this link and see the type of music that has been winning that award. Its not today.

Thats why I mentioned Las Las. That song was on Burna's Love Damini album, and is arguably the biggest afrobeat song of all time, peaking at number 1 on the billboard chart in that same America, and that Album lost in the world music grammy category to someone called Masa Takumi(?) from Japan.

When I think about it again, I have to revise my stance slightly on Burna's grammy win - and I wonder whether having Diddy as the executive producer of that album played a part.

Either way, I think based on the voting history, thag it looks like the Grammys are viewing afrobeats album as Pop albums trying to sneak in through the back door into the wrong category based on ethnicity.

Burna boy had a song in that album contesting with Drake, JCole, Durk etc. If Davido submits any of his songs in that category, he will lose, because his song doesn't crossover enough...meanwhile Burna's crossover appeal got him booked to actually perform at the Grammys

But maybe his music is also not seen as authentically indigenous as well. Because again, just look at the past winners of these awards, and other than Angelique, tell me which one you've ever heard of.

Grammy is mad. As far as the song has been nominated, they have an equal chance of winning based on their criteria. It's now left to votes.

Person wey win am no get up to 1 million views on youtube. Wetyn global for the album? If they feel afrobeat is not eligible for their indigenous criteria, then they should not nomiate them at all.

That Shakti na pure rubbish.

nihilistjnr:
Am I the one that voted for it to win grammys?

Voting is about subjectivity not objectivity. That's why Macklemlre beat Kendrick Lamar to best rap album award in 2014.

But you said it has to be a cross border music to win na.

nihilistjnr:
I think this actually shows just how far Burna and Wizxy have gone in this game.

Imo Burna is inow ndubitably and undisputedly at the top of the food chain in this Afrobeats game, although an argument might be made that he has surpassed/doesn't do(delete one as necessary) Afrobeats.

Case in point, Burna was actually competing with Drake(!) and J.Cole(!) In one category this year. Person wey pass you, pass you. Who too get, too get.

As good an Alvum as Timeless was, and it was a dope album, i don't think it was necessarily made as a crossover album. If you love afrobeats, you'll love it. If you don't, then meh.

Whereas Burna boy makes music with serious crossover appeal. Twice as tall was the equivalent of light skin nigga with blond highlights in his dreadlocks. He's black, but the whites can recognise something familiar about him.

You only have to look at the structure of 'Las Las' to realise where Davido continues to fall short.

The album that won, you love it? Or you love the genre?

swiz123:
Jorginho is better than Enzo is the truth that has been on everyone's mind, but shame won't let them.

Based on pure talent or what?

Based on pure talent, who be Halaand where Jackson dey?

Griffon:
Your wish will be granted.

Amen.

patrickmuf:
Why this man comot Mainoo for Ghost?

Our coach na funny man.

I can't recognize my darling Chelsea anymore.

I hope we turn this game around and lose by 4-1.

We should be planning on getting an improvement on Bruno. The guy don dey off.

But out coach go use money buy downgrade.

Mrviktor:
Il believe if he does this regularly

Scoring in 4 consecutive games doesn't count?

Hodjlund don pick form.

swiz123:
Iwobi is not from Okocha bloodline.

Someone that has more impact than okocha for the super eagles.

Jodera:

Him really carry bulldozer come

People like this, na mid players them dey always fams

Leyqute:
And to think he was the one who clumsily lost possession for their third goal.

Na Ten Hag dey give am mind to do nonsense.

Puntingnoob:
Anthony is the worst signing of the season. Diallo dey bench, ten hag na werey

Ten Hag na biased man.

Mainoo score, Antony dey look like mumu. He no fit follow celebrate

For what it's worth, the global economy seems to be in freefall at the moment.

UK economy is in a recession in all but name, and a lot of us have had to tighten our belts. Yesterday the IMF forecast that Germany of all countries, will have the weakest major economy of 2024.

Scant consolation I guess, but at least applies some additional context to Nigeria's financial woes; even if the country wasn't the critically mismanaged basket case that it is, it would still be struggling to deal with the post-COVID fallout. Put simply, this one pass Tinubu or Obi.

Jesus Christ himself won't be doing better.

UK is in recession but naira dey fall against pounds steadily.

Recession no reach pounds?

Roland17:
Our politicians have mastered the populace, them no rate Nigerians at all. There is no consequence for failure in Nigerian politics. Patapata, you take a break for a few to enjoy your loot. If they end up in jail, they are given palatial treatment there and are out before the end of their sentence, maybe forfeit a % of the loot.

We are wailing about APC who have been a disaster, but let me assure that if PDP or LP wins, those same criminals in APC will decamp and join the PDP/ LP or the winning party, so what gives?

Increase fuel to 2000/L, they know Nigerians will only wail but they will buy. Insecurity can meet everyone at their door step except the rich and politicians, nothing will change, they know Nigerians will only wail. This is especially sad for a country with the amount of educated citizens and tertiary institutions littered around the country.

I can go on and on. We need to start from the process that nominates these criminals for elective positions. Until parties begin to present credible and prepared candidates across all levels. Also, Our institutions are extremely weak, I keep saying this.

The state has been captured by these politicians, most especially these APC guys.

Prior to now, people could protest freely. But that is not the case anymore.

These parties have ideologies. The ideology of APC is hardship and retrogression. I hate the party so much that if my father buys an APC form I'll campaign against him.

So yes, party matters.

It will favour me and my family

Aturitoroman:
Omo e nor supposed better for una still supporting this Apc government and still giving useless excuses

E dey better for them.
Some don dey receive contract.

Eyes go peel soon

Englishisamust:
Pogba and rashford 4 years in man u is better than this, . I don't know what is special about this

liveLongNprospa:
A certain bald fucker doesn't get it😁

Na that instance I know say him no go succeed.

If it was Messi he did it to, in as much as I go banter Messi, na the same position I go hold towards am.

If you don't celebrate grace, you will face disgrace.

Antony finally scores.

metodman:
It was an excuse to buy more time for ETH.

What a shame.

Maybe the wise one who said it will now say it's because Onana's absence.
