S/African Tyla Outshines Nigerian Stars At Grammys

Published

on

In a riveting turn of events at the 66th Grammy Awards on Sunday, South African music sensation Tyla claimed victory in the fiercely contested Best African Music Performance category.

Defying expectations, Tyla triumphed over a formidable lineup, including Nigerian heavyweights Davido, Burna Boy, Asake, and Ayra Starr.

The acclaimed artist’s ascent to global recognition was propelled by her chart-topping 2023 hit, ‘Water.’

The victory of the 22-year-old singer has sparked a revived social media feud between Nigerians and South Africans, just as both nations brace for the Africa Cup of Nations semi-final showdown scheduled for Wednesday.

Critics, relishing the Grammy win, taunt that South Africa has taken an early lead ahead of the AFCON clash.

Meanwhile, for some Nigerians, the stage is set for a decisive “Amapiano battle” not on the music charts but on the football pitch in Bouake, Cote D’Ivoire, come Wednesday.

An X user, @East_Side_Breed confidently reminded everyone, “Quick reminder that South Africa will beat Nigeria in the upcoming AFCON match,”

Another  user, @kidkhaddyjnr presumably from South Africa, proudly declared, “South Africa – 1, Nigeria – 0. Game on!”

Meanwhile another user @PrinceChrisMUFC wrote “South Africa won today but Nigeria will win on Wednesday where it matters most

The controversial song “Men Are Crazy,” which is performed by popular singer Simisola Kosoko, often known as Simi, was inspired by her husband, Adekunle Gold, according to her revelation.

Meanwhile there were differing opinions on Simi’s most recent single, “Men Are Crazy,” which included Tiwa Savage.

A lot of male social media users criticised the singers for the song’s patronising tone.

Simi claimed that the song’s concept originated with her husband, singer Adekunle Gold, during an appearance on Angela Yee’s podcast, “Way Up.”

She said, “My husband gave me the idea for my song, ‘Men Are Crazy’. He was like, ‘Babe, how about we do a song and you say men are crazy but I still want one in my bed?’

“I was like, ‘Oh yeah, no one is going to see that coming from me. So I made that song. I had actually finished the song, I did two verses but I felt something was missing. It just hit me and I was like, ‘I will love to have Tiwa on the song.’ We [our music] don’t generally go in the same direction but I was like, it would be so nice to find that balance and do something that would bring our synergies together. So I sent it to Tiwa and she did her verse and we shot the video together.”
