WIZKID gets Nominated for his first-ever Grammy Award
The Nigerian singer was a contributor on ‘Views’, an album by Drake Aubrey Graham, which was nominated in the album of the year category.
.
The nominations which were announced on Tuesday had a number of shocking omissions including One Dance, a song by Drake featuring Wizkid and British singer, Kyla.
.
The omission will definitely raise many eyebrows as One Dance was the number one song on the Billboard charts for up to ten weeks.
.
Wizkid, who has had a stellar year, has toured alongside artistes like Chris Brown.
.
In spite of the snub, One Dance has already won several awards in 2016, one of which was the Teen Choice Award for Choice R&B/Hip-Hop Song.
.
Beyonce, Drake, Adele, Chance The Rapper, Kanye West, Justin Bieber, Rihanna were the most nominated artistes by Recording Academy. ‘Blonde’, the latest album by Frank Ocean, an R&B singer and songwriter, was not nominated because he failed to submit his material for consideration.
.
“I’d rather this be my Colin Kaepernick moment for the Grammys than sit there in the audience,” Ocean
