amidst accusations of the Grammy organizers’ partiality following the absence of Nigerian nominees winning at the 66th Grammys, with Tyla emerging as the sole non-Nigerian nominee to clinch the inaugural Best African Music Performance award, Timaya claimed during a recent interview with The Beat 99.9 FM, Lagos, that Nigerian awards are even less credible than the Grammys.
When asked by the host about his opinion on the suggestion that the Grammy exploited Afrobeats and the need for Nigerian artists to focus on local recognition, Timaya responded, “We don’t need to come back home. Even our own, which credible awards? Is it the Hip-hop awards, Hip TV awards [The Headies]? I don’t even know. They are not credible either. They are even worse than the Grammys.”
He continued, “If we have a homegrown award that is credible, people would gravitate towards it. But for now, whether you like it or not, Grammy is still Grammy. We don’t have to back down [because Nigerian artists lost this year]. We are going again.”
