Nigerian entertainment executives storm LA for Grammys #GrammyWeekend
A host of Nigerian entertainment executives have been spotted in Los Angeles ahead of the 2020 Grammy Awards Scheduled for the Staples Centre this Sunday.
Although most of them could have various reasons for being there, we could also speculate that they are there to show support and solidarity for their Nigerian brother, Burna Boy who has been nominated in the Best World Music Album category for his ‘African Giant’ album. Also in that category are Altin Gün – Gece, Bokanté & Metropole Orkest Conducted By Jules Buckley – What Heat, Nathalie Joachim With Spektral Quartet – Fanm D’ayiti and Angelique Kidjo – Celia.
