The prestigious Recording Academy, Grammy Awards organisers face backlash as it describes the renowned Nigerian Afrobeat singers, Wizkid and Rema as up-and-coming artists.

On Instagram, the Academy received severe criticism from Nigerians after tagging two of the best internationally recognized singers as up-and-coming.

In an Instastory post that questioned, “Who is an up-and-coming Black artist everyone should have on their radar?” the Recording Academy mentioned Wizkid and Rema.

This choice, however, did not sit well with many Nigerians, particularly Wizkid’s fans, who deemed it disrespectful considering the singer’s status as one of Africa’s most accomplished music artistes.
