I don't understand you lots.
Do you know what it means to break into the international scene from NIgeria?
Do you know the challenges you have to pull through?
You'd put in thrice the efforts than a nigerian in diaspora!

Of all those names called, how many Nigerians can identify with their music in this present age and even in the decade you claim they won it?

Burna has been 10X more hardworking and deserving than those names you called.

That's a fact and why this one is so so SPECIAL
You are exactly one of the reasons Nigeria is fuqed up. Blinded by sentiments and too egotistical to even consider that all those guys gave you hard proof, yet you not only wallowed in ignorance but actively, tirelessly and ferociously defended it.

Will it kill you to admit that you were wrong? Or is this some BS tribal sentiment again? Other Nigerians have won Grammy but burna boy is the first new generation artist to win it in your era.

Simple.

Gosh!!! Nigerians Mata na wa ooo undecided

Grammy is the creator reward for music.
There is no award greater than the Grammy.
To be recognized as a world great in music, you have to have won it, not only be nominated.

So if you oppose the motion that he's officially Nigeria greatest musician, then who is and why? And also have your choice being nominated for a Grammy?
Bob Marley has zero nomination, yet he is one of world's greatest musician. You see why I tagged you and the other dude as indomie generation.

Note: Burna Boy is good, but he is not at the same level of the likes of the legends Fela, Marley, Youssou N'Dour and many others that are without a grammy nominations.

Oga. Seal won a Grammy. Sade Adu won a Grammy. I listened to both at the said time. Let me breathe please. You do your research. The quality of music in Seal's song still is unmatched by Burna's sound. Do your homework abeg you
he's right. Burna is the first nigerian born to ever clinch the award. Sade and seal were born and raised in diaspora. Besides both are half nigerians. Seal's mum is from brazil. Sade's dad is from the UK

Nothing like breakthrough.... Music is Universal, in fact one of those guys is a Percussionist not a Singer... but Oyinbo recognize hard work not your race...

The simple truth of this whole argument is that, you are pained that Burna boy finally won Grammy. E choke you abi ?.if to say na David win am it will be vise visa. But Davido can never win Grammy.

It appears you are not ready to take corrections for your ignorance. While congratulating Burna boy for his feat we should not twist or be blind to history. At least five Nigerians have Won the Grammy before him. This is a fact of history but if you choose to wallow in your ignorance I am afraid I can't help you.

You just don't have any sensë left in you. If you did, you'd know I don't give a fuq about davido or burna boy but the truth. They are both Nigerians and a win for one is a win for all, mudafucker!!!

I'm not a music newbie boy.
Bob died in 1981, before and as at that time the time, the Grammy never had a recognition category for regae artist until 1985 (four years after his death).

Burna is only 29....give the dude a break, he hasn't even lived half the age of Fela.

Bob Marley was a great but wasn't recognized in the Grammy but his kids are very popular with the awards.

One-man-win, unlike wizkid's attached win.


Well deserved for Burna Boy.
