Nigerians , will be like ' who is she ?


I only hear her music if am listening to America top 40 on soundcity fm

See how dem pack award give am like gala

They would have given Ariana Grande Album of the Year! Thank you next, deserved it!

Yet Nigerian musicians are here deceiving themselves with false celebrity attributes
Jumping up and down on stage with frog voice
Non sings music that last beyound 3 months
Good and philosophical music died long ago in Nigeria

now

Burna Boy should be ashamed of himself.
He couldn't clinch just one but a teenager has a deadweight of 5!
If he has any decency, he should know he owes all his fans an apology.

Just like Angelique, Billie didn't need to wear blings, brag over millions of Instagram followers or flaunt a celebrity partner.
She learnt from Ed Sheeran and simply focussed on creating better music than the world was already used to.

The millions of Instagram followers our Nigerian musicians command and the lavish lives they flaunt is the only reason most American artistes agree to stoop low to feature them and not their talent.
Beyonce will rather feature a Wizkid on her album than an Asá or a Lagbaja because they are also in showbiz for more publicity.

But if she were on a Music Award panel, she'd pick Asá over a Wizkid.
That's the sadly true reality.

Burna boy would have won if he is American or British

She deserves it

Isoosrait

I need a baby mama to born world talent for me. talent boku for my spermatozoa

This Smalling girl won five grammy awards and you couldn't give our own Oluwaburna one. Abeg, make una dey go. Next year na Wizkid, Davido, Burna and Teni go win am.

Then people say Burna boy nor deserve am because of he style of singing...na Mama Kidjo type na im dey win Grammy...well Grammy has always been unpredictable.

Damn. 18 years old

Dash my broda 1 naw...

If u are white chances dey

Congrats to Kidjo she made Africa proud and to Burna for pushing his career further and globally. This is his first nomination and would go a long way to prove his worth and consistence to the global listeners. He should go back to the studio and do more jams, but to be honest winning Grammy no be child's play I just imagine Burna going beyond African Giants album means more serious work and fire blazing songs. Well congrats to all the winners and nominees y'all deserve some accolades.. cheers

Burna boy no even see slate, talk more of award

While some adults are here checking their NL likes. Shouting afonja, biafla, brown roof, osu and blaming Buhari.

E go better.

Oh Burna Boy.....

Awesome

This small girl winning and our BURNABOY losing makes me lost respect for their MUMU Award
Overrated Award

I have a dream that one day we Africans will be hosting our own grammies and artists from USA and the likes of Britain will only be included in the second-tier 'world' category.

... But in that dream, Nigeria's forced marriage was no more.

Blacks can't be found to sing things reasonable.

Just shallow stuff on sex and cars.

Martin Luther wasted that death.

While some are busy calling themselves Marlians...................the real Marlians are cashing out on their destinies
