A fan of Davido has voiced his disappointment following the results of the 67th Grammy Awards, where Tems was named the winner of the Best African Music Performer category, a decision that sparked outrage among many Nigerian music lovers.
The outcome of the award ceremony caused a stir, particularly among Davido's fans, as many believed the popular artist was more deserving of the award. The controversy intensified on social media, with some questioning the credibility of the Grammy's selection process.
Tems’ win, while a significant achievement for her career, did not sit well with some fans, who argued that Davido had made immense contributions to African music and deserved the honor. This difference of opinion ignited heated debates on various platforms, particularly regarding the fairness of the voting process and whether there was any political influence involved in the decision.
A passionate fan, identified as @dombillionz on TikTok, took to the platform to express his frustration. In an emotional video, he accused the Grammy organisers of politicizing the awards and claimed that Davido’s extensive talent and track record in the music industry made him the rightful winner.
“See ehh, Grammy e be like say una dey play politics with this thing. Davido suppose win Grammy this year. This guy is good. Una wan tell us say Tems better pass Davido? She sabi sing pass Davido? Abi she sabi baff up pass Davido? We no come trust this una award again. We no trust am. This thing is being politicised,” he lamented in the video.
His post quickly went viral, with fans rallying around his sentiments and showing their support for Davido. While others defended Tems’ win, stating that she too has made great strides in the industry, the debate over the fairness of the Grammy Awards continues to spark conversation among music fans.
