The Grammy Awards are facing criticism over an apparent mix-up involving Burna Boy and another artist, Seyi Vibez. In a video featuring artists set to perform at the upcoming Grammy Awards ceremony, the Recording Academy included Burna Boy, highlighting his achievement as a 2021 Grammy winner.
The video snippet used a portion of Burna Boy’s song with Seyi Vibez, “Giza,” to announce his performance.
However, a screenshot shared on Twitter by user Pop Crave created confusion by displaying Seyi Vibez’s face during the commercial, leading to claims that the Grammys had mistaken him for Burna Boy. Despite the online drama, the Grammys later issued an official announcement clarifying the inclusion of Burna Boy in the lineup for the ceremony.
Netizens were not impressed with the Grammys.
