Why do we value Grammy more than our own indigenous Award ? Grammy is a Local Award to the West . Please stop the spread of inferiority Complex. Bella shmurda ( cash App is my Best song for now ) sometimes it can be Coldplay or Kenny G it depends on the mood . Every Artist is good in is own way wether Grammy or not. Americans don't use Nigerian or Africa Award as a Yardstick for their Artists because they believe they're the best we Africans can Adopt that mentality and free our mind from Grammy slavery |

All music is subjectively good or bad. So in my opinion... There are certain elements of creativity that mark any good piece of music, even if an individual person doesn't like to listen to it. If a country artist writes the most heartfelt lyrics, the most touching melody, and the most perfect combination of chords underneath, that is a good song even if I don't like it personally, because it took talent and creativity, and maybe a bit of inspiration, to create that piece. It's a chunk of that artist's soul that he or she is sharing with the world, and that's special. |

Ehen!? So, Diddy owns Grammy now abi? All these narratives are laughable. Did Don Jazzy or Dbanj get a nomination when they had opportunity with Kanye West and Jay Z? You guys are just pained that Burna made a joke of Davido. Wat Burna did is wrong but TAT is a good album abeg! Say the truth, e no dey kill. The album fits the standard of Grammy's pop culture. Davido knows he can't cope in the aspect. Even if Nigeria has its own independent and indigenous award outfit, musicians like qdot, omu obiligbo, the cavemen, and brymo should get all the awards. And am I seeing some posts saying RKelly has no Grammy? Lol! Ignorance or pure hate, make una just stop to dey lie abeg |

moremuch1: Some Africans are possessed with the spirit of Slavery. I wish Nigerians can learn a thing or two from Korean stars - BTS BTS never begged for a nomination. When Grammy saw their impact and 'crazy' fans, they had no choice to invite them and gave them not just an award, but a sit on Grammy board! That's how it's done because Koreans support their own, they have the numbers. Imagine 1.1 billion views on a single song, a single streaming platform! Who can beat that? Rihanna abi na Nicki Minaj, our gods and idols here? Imagine BTS group with 1.1 billion YouTube views on a single song (one of highest YouTube views in the Universe) begging Grammy for awards. Burna Boy can continue to LUST aggressively after foreign awards at the detriment of VALUE and respect for Africans, but not everyone can be f00led. And oh, I love how he's addressed: self-acclaimed African giant, because the Nigerian giants I know do not plagiarize zulu beats on a full album comprising over 13 songs. Anytime Davido drops a new video, he gets over 1 million YouTube views in less than 12 hours, but you people want him to adopt South African zulu beats because of Grammy. No wonder Spotify refuse to leave its platform open to Nigerians. At the end of the day, we will continue to beg them even though our numbers give us an edge over them. 3 Likes

Acidosis:And BTS achieved that feat doing their K-Pop sound that Koreans are known for not by switching sounds to please the west and get nominated by grammy. I see our Nigerian artistes getting such massive streams in the near future when Internet becomes very cheap compared to now because one thing that is aiding all these foreign arts in getting massive streams is cheap and available internet but the same cannot be said for Africa if not fall by davido would have easily gotten close to a billion views if internet was cheap and easily available in Africa to stream our songs . But don't worry, that will change very soon. 1 Like |

Who cares about grammy. Did Asa win grammy? Did Tuface win grammy. Headies is okay for us abeg. The people voting the music don't even understand African music or even the language. Grammy still want us to be singing music like coming to America. That is their impression of Africa. That is why they keep giving Angelique Kidjo Award. Because she sings all those "mama afrca" type of songs that remind you of lion king or king of zamunda. |

masterp204: You're getting it all wrong! Music in consideration are usually from September of the previous year to August of the current year That he released few months after this year's eligibility period doesn't mean he's not eligible for the subsequent one. Matter of fact, the album will have garnered enough stream time during the 2021 nomination. The awarding body snubs him only because he's got a shoddy material, not because of the bolded. |
