It has been several nights since the 62nd annual Grammy Awards ceremony ended but so many Burna Boy aficionados have not been able to wake up from the disappointment of him losing the Best World Music Album category to Angelique Kidjo. With a feeling of heartbreak likened to those witnessed when the country national football team lost a world cup match, it’s a hard pill to swallow. Several celebrities in the country have voiced their displeasure, likewise, international icons like Naomi Campbell as well – she took to Instagram to berate the entire nomination process. But despite all of the concerns and mourning, the painful truth I just uncovered behind the voting process is indicative that folks from this country called Nigeria are at fault – we don’t have enough Nigerians among the ‘Voting Members’ of the Grammy Awards. I had a conversation with Bankulli who just had a one on one discussion with the person who oversees the Best World Music Album category.
