The 2025 Grammy Awards are scheduled for Sunday, February 2, at the Crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles. Fans can catch the event live on the CBS Television Network and stream it on Paramount+.
The Nigerian music scene is well-represented at the 2025 Grammys, especially with Afrobeats artists shining in the African Song Performance category.
Leading the Nigerian nominees is Tems, who has three nominations: Best Global Album for her debut LP 'Born In The Wild', Best African Song Performance, and a groundbreaking nomination for Best RnB Performance for her track 'Burning'.
Rema is also in the running for his first Grammy, nominated for Best Global Album with his second album 'HEIS'.
Other notable Nigerian nominees include Yemi Alade, who is up for her first Best African Song Performance nomination, and Lojay, who received his first nod for his work with Davido on Chris Brown's 'Sensational'.
Asake is back with his second nomination for Best African Song Performance for 'MMS', featuring Wizkid. Meanwhile, Grammy winner Burna Boy is making history with his 10th nomination for 'Higher' in the same category.
The previous Grammy Awards were tough for the Nigerian artists, as they lost the inaugural African Song Performance award to South African artist Tyla. However, this upcoming ceremony is expected to bring some joy, as Nigeria is likely to take home an award.
