Having a Grammy nomination is significant for any performer all over the world, and the thought of winning one is something that every musician would appreciate.
Many Africans have inscribed their names on the top prize, and Angelique Kidjo, for example, has consistently won the award on numerous occasions, making herself a superstar in the music industry and gaining widespread recognition over time.
Many Nigerian musicians have not been nominated, despite a few of them scooping up prizes on a grand scale, like Davido, Dbanj, and, most recently, Falz, who was named the most effective performing act of 2016.
Burna Boy, the self-described African megastar, once again elevated Nigeria in the eyes of the world by putting himself in the spotlight with single after single and an album (Ye), all because of his brilliant performance of Gbona, a song that had many, if not the majority of the country, jerking their feet in time to Online Casino entertainment.
Assisting Gbona, Dangote, On The Low, and other songs with mesmerizing performance and we’ll say his exploit since 2018 was sufficient to get his name on the list of those to take the award in the class where he found himself jostling the legendary Kidjo was what caused him to get his name on the list.
Despite the fact that many people would argue that he was still in his infancy or simply a vocalist hiding around till 2018, we learned that hard effort pays off, especially given the fact that he consistently creates high-quality music.
His 2012 debut hit, like to get together, along with other songs by Rizzla, Yawa Dey, and Ebelebe, got Nigerians grooving right away.
Evaluating each artist can seem like a no-brainer, but taking into account what Burna Boy has accomplished throughout the years, particularly after 2018, makes the comparison worthwhile. Burna Boy must dole out consistent hits, as Wizkid has done for more than ten years, in order to compete head-to-head with him.
Burna Boy wants to give us consistent years of hits, and his collaborations with international musicians like Wizkid, Drake, Rihanna, and others have made sure that he has already solidified his spot in the top echelon of world music.
Many would still argue that comparing Burna Boy to Starboy is a troll on Wizkid given that Wizkid has successfully crossed paths with the best of the best in the industry.
The rivalry between Wizkid and Davido is constantly evident as their supporters and ardent supporters are constantly seen praising and adoring their greatness in the industry. Many people still believe that Davido is the only singer who has ever been compared to the Starboy himself.
When Davido posted a picture of himself and Wizkid with the tagline “Biggest of all time” a few weeks ago, it garnered a lot of praise from their fans, who were quick to brag about the pair’s accomplishments.
Many music fans have frequently advised and suggested Burna Boy to keep making decent songs if he has any chance of being compared to Wizkid, especially because his viewpoint and his outbursts on fellow artists have been too much for music fans across the nation to handle.
Burna Boy would forever be grateful to be mentioned in the same conversation as Wizkid, but deep down in his music-filled mind, he would covet and fantasize about Wizzy’s success.
Right now, I think there’s a need to put an end to all of this.
The big question is
Is Burna Boy Better Than Wizkid and Davido?
