The nominees for the prestigious 2024 Grammy Award have been released and as usual, Nigerian artistes raked a reasonable amount of nominations for the fatherland.
This year's Grammy Award nomination took a different turn and came as a surprise. It seems the Afrobeats movement has taken the world by storm and it isn't stopping anytime soon.
The 2024 Grammy Award is going to hold on 4th February 2024 at Crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles, USA.
