Burna boy joins lineup to perform at Grammys

AFROBEATS sensation and Grammy awards winner Damini Ebunoluwa Ogulu, also known as Burna Boy, has been listed to perform at the 66th Grammy Awards.

The Record Academy, via an X post on Monday, January 22, announced that the Nigerian star and American stars Luke Combs and Travis Scott had been added to the lineup of performers at the ceremony.

Aside from being a Grammy winner with several other nominations, this marks another feat as this is the second time he will perform at a Grammy event. He had previously performed his songs, ‘Level Up’, ‘Onyeka’ and ‘Ye’ at the premiere of the awards ceremony in 2020.

The premiere is usually a prelude to the main awards ceremony.
