AKA: “A NOMINATION IS A HUGE ACHIEVEMENT”

South African A-List Rapper, AKA has reacted to the Grammy Award loss of Afrobeats singer Burna Boy.

As soon as the news broke that Burna Boy lost the award, trolls stormed AKA’s Twitter page to hear what he will say about the loss Burna Boy suffered. With the Grammies over and Burna Boy going home, many expect AKA to express excitement.

However, Aka changed that narrative when he tweeted;

“What you should have done is focus on the positive instead of thinking about me and my country. In any case, Burna is still a champion. We still consider him a winner”

“I never hated Burna Boy. All I did was stand up for my country. I think it’s time to move past this narrative. It’s tired. Like I said, even a nomination is a huge achievement”.
