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.”
