In a surprising turn of events at the Grammy Awards, 22-year-old Tyla emerged victorious, beating out heavyweights such as Davido, Burna Boy, Asake, and Ayra Starr for the coveted accolade.



The announcement sent shockwaves through the Nigerian music scene, especially among fervent fans of Davido, who had garnered significant attention with three Grammy nominations.

The anticipation was palpable, with many believing that Davido, particularly known for his hit track "Unavailable," would finally secure a Grammy win. However, the reality fell short of expectations, leaving fans and the artist himself grappling with a dose of disappointment.

Even Grammy chief Burna Boy faced a similar fate, as he walked away empty-handed this year, despite his prominent position in the music industry.


The unexpected triumph of Tyla, with his acclaimed song "Water," underscored the Grammy's recognition of a much larger musical phenomenon emerging from Africa. "Unavailable," though widely popular, found itself overshadowed by the resounding success of Tyla's chart-topping track.


Davido, gracious in defeat, took to his X account to extend congratulations to Tyla, acknowledging the South African artist's significant achievement as a triumph not just for Tyla but for the entire African music community.


Despite the setback, Davido's supporters remain optimistic, with hopes that the artist will persist in his musical journey, and future Grammy ceremonies will witness his well-deserved triumph. The unpredictable nature of the music industry ensures that the next Grammy may indeed be Davido's moment to shine.
