Oh btw, Don Jazzy is going to get a grammy soon from producing tho, for his strategic alliance with G.O.O.D/Illuminati,  #MarkMyWords. . DON BABA J!!!!  wink cool

LOL@bold. Then that should get an Award category. Even if Grammy has, I bet Nigerians would still not stand a chance.

Tiwa Savage has already been nominated for a Grammy (2011) for her work on Fantasia's Grammy Award-winning album. So don't rule Tiwa out. Because she's singing for the Nigerian audience now doesn't mean it's not possible for her again. The woman is very talented, both vocally and as a songwriter. When her album drops, we'll hear its contents and make better judgment of her.

I do agree though with everyone saying Asa. Kinda off-topic but I heard her songs playing here at a California mall. She's on her way lol.
Re: Which Nigeria Musician Can Win Grammy Award? by Nobody: 6:09pm On Mar 07, 2012
Asa - once heard a song being played in a local pub in Manchester. Her song was also played at a street carnival in Spain with choreograph dancers gyrating to it. Songs popular in Europe

Nneka - song featured on a best seller video game, can't remember the game now. Listened to her last album about 40k feet above sea level on a trip from Paris to Lagos - album listed on Airfrance play list with the likes of Alicia Keys.

Femi Kuti - very original, had 2 nominations in the past already, song also featured on some best seller video game soundtracks.

Sade, lighhouse, Seal, chamilonaire, wale e.t.c are non Nigerians.

@Saxywale u r right on point, Asa, Nneka, Femi Kuti all stand a good chance in winning Grammy, for their originality, Majority of their shows n tours are outside 9ja,
Re: Which Nigeria Musician Can Win Grammy Award? by 9jafreak: 8:00pm On Mar 07, 2012
[size=16pt]Let's be clear folks:

The Grammys is for Americans and Brits. The Jamicans are afforded a small segment for Marley's sake and the whole Pan-African appeasement bullshivism. We saw it with Jay Z, Will Smith and Beyonce honouring FELA with the whole Broadway stunts! Hence Sunny and Femi Kuti's nomination.

Why do you care about the Grammys? Suddenly a white british girl (Adele) who can't even write her own songs sings like thousands of black girls and she sweeps the show.

Like Amy Winehouse did with Back to Black (may her soul RIP)

Asa's natural lottery prevents her. She's born in France not Britain. If she was british, she'll be on 3-5 grammys already. Jailer would have won 2 Grammys and her new album would have gone platinum!

Nneka holds a German citizenship (the Jewish elites wouldn't find that particularly tasteful)
Tuface,
dbanj,
9ice
are just living in pure illusions. But they are all big boys what's the fuss? I think they have a better chance at a Nobel Peace Prize if they start caring more about their own people, 2face excepting!


Asa is Africa's most successful artiste right now. She performs virtually everywhere. Her songs are played in Hong Kong, Japan, and Korea on radio and her video I saw on Hong Kong channel. Plus, she's sensational in Europe where you can find the really best music on earth in my opinion!

Na you sabi. I don't believe in this Nigerians/non-Nigerians ish. Why? Because Asa, Nneka, and Femi Kuti have songs in pidgin? Gimme a break.

By the way isn't this the same Nairaland where members have conveyed time and time again that Nigerians won't win Grammy awards because our songs are in pidgin? Okay ohh.

@9jafreak

Winning at the Grammys has nothing to do with where you were born or which citizenship you hold and everything to do with talent in my opinion. I hope you know that what you see on tv is not the full list of award winners? Peter Tosh won a Grammy because his anti-apartheid, pro-Africa album was amazing. He's talented. Ali Farka Toure? Talented. Angelique Kidjo, Soweto Gospel Choir, Ladysmith Black Mambazo, Youssou N'dour, all talented. Same thing with the Reggae categories. They win Grammys because they're ahead of their counterparts. They're in leagues of their own.

Femi Kuti has got the potentials, but Asa is not bad to win it as well.

Dareh, because he is original and not a copy-cat. You can only win a grammy by being original . Take a closer look at others, they are all karaoke singers except Asa or the Kutis.
