The well-known Afrobeats performer Burna Boy makes a suggestion that the Recording Academy created the new Grammy category for “Best African Music Performance” in his honor.
The well-known African musician expressed his sense of guilt about the creation of the new African Music category.
In a recent interview with the Los Angeles Times, he disclosed this.
Burna Boy questioned whether the new category the Recording Academy developed will be as prestigious as the others.
Burna said …
“I do feel somewhat responsible for the new ‘Best African Music Performance’ category, which is nice. At the same time, what is it really? Is it a consolation category? Will it hold as much prestige? I’m waiting to see.”
Similarlily Damini Ogulu, also known as Burna Boy, an international Afrobeats and Dancehall performer, has complained about not being respected enough by Nigerians.
Because of how he sounds, he claims that his countrymen do not feel he is on the same level as American music icons.
Burna mentioned this in an interview with the Los Angeles Times, where he discussed how his countrymen frequently place up-and-coming American rappers ahead of him.The artist stated that his next album “I Told Them…” is a lighthearted retort to those who have tried to defame him in the past and presently.The self-styled “African Giant” stated that American songs used to dominate the playlists of Nigerian media outlets, but that has changed due to the explosion of afrobeats.Burna Boy said; “To this day, there’s many Nigerians who can tell you an American rapper who just started their career, and they’ll say they’re bigger than Burna Boy. They don’t understand it. They’ll say, ‘There’s no way someone who talks like me, can even be on the same level as an American artist.”
