Nigeria Afrobeats singer, Damini Ebunoluwa Ogulu professionally known as Burna Boy, won Best Global Music Album for ‘Twice As Tall’ at the Premiere Ceremony of the 63rd GRAMMY Awards.
His Twice as Tall album won the award over records by Antibalas (FU Chronicles), Bebel Gilberto (Agora), Anoushka Shankar (Love Letters), and Tinariwen (Amadjar). The win marks Burna Boy’s first Grammy Award after being nominated last year.
Burna Boy won the award months after the Recording Academy announced plans to change the name of Best World Music Album to Best Global Music Album, saying it’s a step toward “a more relevant, modern, and inclusive term.”
