Nigerian music producer Samklef has taken a jab at Afrobeat star Davido following his failure to secure a win at the 67th Grammy Awards, despite receiving six nominations.
Reacting on social media, Samklef suggested that Davido’s industry rivals, Burna Boy and Wizkid, might be laughing at his loss. He praised Tems for her Best African Music Performance win, emphasizing that true talent, not money, determines success. “Thank God there’s no bribing at the Grammys. At the end of the day, money can’t replace real talent,” he wrote.
Tems won the prestigious award for her song Love Me JeJe, beating top contenders, including Davido, Burna Boy, Asake, Wizkid, and Yemi Alade
