Nickiminaj, Snoop Dog and many other big American artists are still without a Grammy but you are here talking about Burna Boy winning Grammy

Even Akon is still without a Grammy

If Akon can still be without Grammy despite his fame in USA and around the World imagine Burna Boy lol

No matter how great you're, as long as you're an ex-con you can never win Grammy...

Burns can, if Angelique Kidjo could, then there's hope.
meanwhile, the most popular artist do not translate to Grammy eg U2 an Irish band has 20 Grammy, Alicia keys has 15, Rihanna has about 5 etc

After winning one then what? I see this same article written with different names listed. Nigerian bloggers should give it a rest, abeg. To me I don’t think any of our artistes should care about the white man’s recognition. Doing so drove D’banj out of the Nigerian market and till now he hasn’t recovered.

Grammy??

No. 1 he is black ....... Ask Samuel Olumide (Seal)
No. 2 he is african .............Confirm from Beyonce's ancestors
No. 3 he is nigerian .......... Sade Adu told me to tell you that She and Seal are Nigerians.


Stop this inferiority complex.... If you master your craft well, you will earn global twuales. Burna boy is unique and can attain any height if he remains discipline and focused.

What will you now call wizkid and Davido,y’all don’t understand that to be the best it takes consistency not just releasing hits for a year or two.

Even Nas is without a Grammy but mind you Burna boy could win a Grammy under the African music category. And he could be nominated.

I’m not so sure. Has he done smtn that wizkid and Davido haven’t done b4 or even femi Kuti?

I like his originality bt he wud need more creativity to win a Grammy.
He could win the Grammy. Drake hasn't done what Nas had done but he's with a Grammy, Nas isn't.

Y not, burna is doing pretty good at the moment.
Internationally he can be reckoned with.

But then, when it comes to Grammy it's a diff ball game, if the like of 9ice can still be dreaming of Grammy till date despite his back to back hit from the early 20's. I doubt if burna can make it tru.
If he does then it's a plus for Africans music industry.
You can't compare 9ice with burna...am not talking about who's better.....
9ice sings mostly in an indigenous Nigerian tongue(yoruba)..no be everybody hear Yoruba...so there was no way he could...
Burna on the other hand uses lyrics that can be understood by all....
Wiz and burna boy are in the best position possible to do the unthinkable...

Wasn't talking about record sales. I was referring to the lyrical prowess. Nas is way ahead and you know it.

Burna boy is original in his craft. He defined his own genre, Afro fusion. The guy is on top of his game and I hope he make us we his fans proud!!!

Right now he is the only Nigerian artist heading for a Grammy. His lyrics are deep with meaning beyond the words. More international collaboration will sell him to the world.

Oluwa Burna.....

Deep with meaning?

Drop those lyrics here make we see .

Yes he was bt I think he didn’t cos there were a lot of challengers for the spot with him. Sm people got Grammys easy and Sm hard.

Y'all should stop mentioning 9ice. With those incarnation-like lyrics. Wetin he dey sing


Maybe u are not a Yoruba, so u wouldn't understand what 9ice said in his music. But that guy is one of the few musicians we have that sing with deep lyrics that make sense. Even elder people in Yoruba land listen to his music because of his lyrics.

Yeah. It's political though. The Grammys often favour mainstream artistes than the underground artistes.

Burna no be wizkid mate right now, we're talking about skill, vibe and overall music delivery not some repetitive BS about a woman's waist and private parts.
