US Mission Celebrates Shaboozey For Winning Grammy by jmoore(op): 1:34pm On Feb 07
Celebrating Nigerian-American artist Shaboozey who won his first #Grammy – spotlighting #AmericanExcellence in music and the impact of Nigerian-American creativity.

Fun fact: #DYK his name Shaboozey originates from a childhood mispronunciation of his Igbo name, Chibueze?

I made a thread of three Igbos winning grammy on the same night,twice the Mod banned me instantly and deleted the thread,as if they were briefed not to allow Nigerians or Igbos celebrate such a fit. At a time when we had post on Davido and others not winning the Grammy,which we all felt bad about.
I just said,this is crazy,how can Mods do such,even without ethnic bashing.

To be an igboman is a privilege.

You were banned because you made it a tribal issue.
When Wizkid, Burna, David and most recently Fela won the Grammys we all celebrated as Nigerians, did you see anyone mention their tribe?
Let me guess, you were shouting Igbo Amaka all over the thread

Even this your comment, you are still making it about Igbos

Abegi don't try and pacify us ...Davido or you senpe. If Grammy doesn't have an African category, may be we do say okay, so everyone singing would suit American vibes ...You can keep your Grammy Biko.

Because if it was something negative their tribe will be the focus.

Until we agree we need to apologize to the igbos for the war, and try to mend the old wounds, we will be divided as a nation and Biafra agitation will not end.

We need to learn from rwanda

Victim mentality people. Nairaland modes are notorious for that, they do it to everyone. Not because you are Ibo. I have a thread that's front page material, asked modes to push to front page for good coverage. Na lie, till now, they no push am.

So, it's not an Ibo thing, Nairaland Mods are just stewpeed and fullish at the same time. It has nothing to do with ethnic profiling

Re: US Mission Celebrates Shaboozey For Winning Grammy by strangest(m): 4:17pm On Feb 07
There are other Igbos that won the Grammy apart from him



Shaboozey (Collins Obinna Chibueze) – Won Best Country Duo/Group Performance for “Amen” with Jelly Roll. He is of Igbo-Nigerian descent.


Cynthia Erivo (Cynthia Chinasaokwu Onyedinmanasu Erivo) – Won Best Pop Duo/Group Performance for “Defying Gravity” with Ariana Grande. She was born in London to Nigerian parents with Igbo roots.



Tyler, the Creator (Tyler Gregory Okonma) – Won Best Album Cover for Chromakopia (and has multiple Grammys overall). His father is of Nigerian Igbo descent. �

I'm not even igbo. I'm not not planning to inherit the hate our Yoruba parents try to project on us.
Re: US Mission Celebrates Shaboozey For Winning Grammy by Mrexcell(m): 4:23pm On Feb 07
I love listening to this guy song never knew he was even igbo the first time I heard his song i thought he was a white American man.
Re: US Mission Celebrates Shaboozey For Winning Grammy by wallrichy: 4:24pm On Feb 07
Perfectly said. Tyla of SA won Grammy twice. I am yet to know the tribe in SA that she comes from and I don't even care. All I know is that a young SA babe has won Grammy twice in one generation. Let's stop the bitterness. All tribe in Naija get overdose of skills, baba God over blessed the people of Nija in skills, intelligence and natural resources.... therefore, let's concentrate on that and also focus on making our country very great by doing our best to correct all the anomalies done by our usual common misbehave leaders.........

Because the mod knew you want to turn it into a chest beating and gloating thread as if you are the first to achieved it in Nigeria.

Yoruba almost have at least 10 winners Including Fela Kuti that recently became the first in Africa to won Grammy Lifetime Achievements award this year I think we should gloat about it every day.

Stop sounding stupid,a thread that goes with the topic '3 Nigerians of igbo descend won Grammy same night'...using Igbo descend is an expression aim at explaining their true origin since they are not based in Nigeria and may have mixed parentage.
Re: US Mission Celebrates Shaboozey For Winning Grammy by doncartel: 4:42pm On Feb 07
Shakabulizzy by Mavo deserves a Grammy. ‘Me I fit to give you money easy’. Abi na Shaboozey go help us remix am to Grammy level.

I'm Igbo too, but we need to realise that the war affected everyone in Nigeria and for us all to heal ,we cannot afford to put the pain of one group ontop of others. We are creating nothing but suspicion and resentment with your kind of talks. Igbos are owed peace and Igbos owe others peace too. My two cents
