67th Grammys Nominees Full List: Burna Boy, Asake, Rema, Others in

News Update

Nigeria has taken the Grammy spotlight by storm this year, with the Best African Music Performance category filled exclusively by Nigerian talents, proving once again the powerhouse that Nigerian music has become on the world stage.

Heavyweight Burna Boy is back in the race with a nod for his hit “Higher,” while Asake, teaming up with Wizkid on “MMS,” also contends for the prestigious award.

Davido grabs his second nomination in the category this time alongside Lojay, who earns his first Grammy nod for their feature on Chris Brown’s “Sensational.”

Yemi Alade lands her first solo nomination for “Tomorrow,” while Tems secures her place with “Love Me Jeje,” capping off an all-star Nigerian lineup.

But Tems doesn’t stop there—she’s the only African artist with multiple nominations across global categories this year. Her debut album Born in the Wild vies for Best Global Music Album, where she’s joined by Rema, who is up for his sophomore album HEIS.

Outside the African and global categories, Tems also shines in Best R&B Song for “Burning,” a standout track from her album that’s captured listeners worldwide.
