The popular American recording Academy organizers of the Grammy awards has pronounced Nigerian ‘Afrobeats’ singer, Burna Boy as the biggest artist in the whole of Africa.

This commendation was part of a statement published on their website recently, specifically congratulating Burna Boy and other nominees for the inaugural category of Best African Music Performance at the 2024 Grammys.

Burna Boy’s ‘City Boys’ was nominated in the maiden Best African Music Performance category at the 66th Grammys.

‘City Boys’ will contest the award with Davido and Musa Keys’ ‘Unavailable,’ Ayra Starr’s ‘Rush,’ Asake and Olamide’s ‘Amapiano, and Tyla’s ‘Water.’

Burna Boy also bagged nominations in three other categories; ‘Sitting On Top of the World’ featuring 21 Savage – Best Melodic Rap, ‘I Told Them’ – Best Global Music Album, and ‘Alone’ – Best Global Music Performance.

Following the release of nominations, The Grammys said Burna Boy is “firmly in his imperial era” havimg collaborated with “global stars such as Ed Sheeran and Justin Bieber,” and also earned his first UK No. 1 album this year with “the classic hip-hop influenced I Told Them…, featuring appearances from 21 Savage, J. Cole, RZA, and GZA.”

The post reads, “There’s not a bigger star in Afrobeats, or even the whole of Africa itself, than Burna Boy. He nabbed two consecutive Best Global Album GRAMMY nods for his albums Twice as Tall and African Giant, and he’s also collaborated with global stars such as Ed Sheeran and Justin Bieber.”

The spoilt rich kid could've sat back to enjoy his father's wealth but he said no. He worked hard to make a name for himself and become even more popular than his dad. That's a feat that broke assess like you will never be able to achieve even if you were in his shoes.
