Burna Boy, Davido Lose Grammy Awards Despite Nominations

Burna Boy goes empty-handed at Grammy awards despite four nominations

Despite high expectations, Nigerian Afro fusion star Burna Boy lost all four Grammy nominations at the 66th Annual Awards in Los Angeles.

The Nigerian singer was nominated for Best Global Music Album, Best African Music Performance, Best Global Music Performance, and Best Melodic Rap Performance.

Burna Boy faced tough competition in each category, resulting in other artists securing victories.

Nigerian Afro-fusion star Damini Ebunoluwa Ogulu, popularly known as Burna Boy, lost out in all four nominated categories at the 66th Annual Grammy Awards in Los Angeles despite receiving nominations in each category.

The Afro-fusion star, who previously won a Grammy Award for Best Global Music Album in a previous edition, entered the 66th Grammy Awards with high expectations.

However, the outcome was not in his favour, as he left the star-studded ceremony empty-handed.

Burna Boy received nominations in diverse categories, including Best Global Music Album for his work on “I Told Them…“, the inaugural Best African Music Performance with “City Boys“, Best Global Music Performance for “Alone”, and Best Melodic Rap Performance with “Sittin’ On Top Of The World.”

Despite the anticipation and fervent support from fans, the talented singer faced stiff competition in each of his nominated categories.

The Grammy Awards reportedly recognized other outstanding artists, leaving Burna Boy without any wins.

Meanwhile, Davido loses all 3 nominations at the 66th Grammy Awards

Davido was hoping to win his first Grammy award after he was nominated for the Best African Music Performance, Best Global Music Performance, and Best Global Album Performance.

However, the Nigerian megastar failed to win any of his three nominations. 

Davido lost the Best African Music category to Tyla’s ‘Water’, Best Global Music Performance to ‘Pashto’by Béla Fleck, Edgar Meyer & Zakir Hussain Featuring Rakesh Chaurasia, and Best Global Album to Shakti’s ‘The Moment’.
