Burna Boy’s popular supporter and X influencer benny7gg, however, stirred reactions after he bragged about the Bundle by Bundle’s crooner’s achievement in the Nigerian music industry.

Sharing a photo of Burna Boy on his X timeline, benny7gg stated that Burna Boy remains the first and still the only Nigerian-born artist to win a Grammy for an album.

“whatever the outcome may be tonight, never forget that Burna Boy is the first and still the only Nigerian born artist in history to win the #GRAMMYs for his body of work.”

TheTalk.NG recalls reporting that Burna Boy won Best Global Music Album for Twice As Tall at the 63rd GRAMMY Awards.

The music star’s song Higher was also nominated at the 67th Grammy alongside Yemi Alade, Rema, and Asake Ololade Mr Money in the same category won by Tems.

Burna Boy’s fan’s comment sparks reactions

Some rival fans disputed, benny7gg’s claim stating that Nigerian percussionist and recording artist Sikiru Adepoju had a Grammy to his name before Burna Boy.

However, a quick check by TheTalk.NG showed Sikiru won a Grammy for Best Contemporary World Music Album in 2009 for his contribution to the title album of Mickey Hart’s Global Drum Project.
