Although he didn’t win the #GRAMMYAwards2020, I am very proud of the recognition that @burnaboy has received on the world stage today. Angelique Kidjo dedicating her win to him is the definition of grace and class. Burna is just 28. He will come again. Una know say him special.

Burna Boy was not cheated. Angelique Kidjo is a legend in music & Africa as a whole. The 62nd Grammy is Burma’s first nomination, but Kidjo’s 10th… Burna is one of our own but let’s give respect to whoever deserves it.

Angélique Kidjo is an icon. She has been doing this music thing years before I was born and trust me, I’m older than 60% of y’all on this app. Don’t ever disrespect her because you think Burna should’ve won. Angélique winning takes nothing away from Burna, he’s phenomenal.

You saw that nomination list, you knew yourself that it's competitive and he would probably not win.

But you went ahead shouting "Burna will win" the same way you shout "I will become a millionaire" without working towards it.

Now you are gonna act like he was cheated, clowns!

Congratulations to Angelique Kidjo who won and dedicated the Award to Burna!
