Grammies are awarded primarily based on voting outcomes by people that possess the academy voting membership.. So if Angelique kidjo received over Wizkid, it was as a result of she had the best whole vote 🤷‍♂️

Nevertheless, Kidjo’s craft is a extra pictorial illustration of a real African than Wiz’s
