Winning a Grammy award is the dream of every singer. Nigerian dancehall singer, Timaya may become the first Nigerian based singer to clinch a Grammy award. Recall that the first Nigerian, though not based in Nigeria, who won an award at the Grammies was Cynthia Erivo, a singer and actress born in London to Nigerian immigrants.
Timaya who was featured alongside Ghanaian Afro-pop singer, Stonebwoy, Chubb Rock, Stylo G, Bunji Garlin, Dre Zion & Jaheil on Morgan Heritage’s “Avrekedabra” may become the first Nigerian-based act to win the award.
This feat can only happen if the album wins in the category it has been nominated for.
‘Avrekedabra’ was nominated for the Best Reggae Album award and will slug it out with “Chronology” by Chronixx, “Lost in Paradise” by Common Kings, “Wash House Ting” by J Boog and “Stony Hill” by Damian “Jr. Gong” Marley.
