You are the KING of the people, that has bought AFROBEATS mainstream, that means more than any academy of any sort….@recordingacademy Once again you choose to be tone deaf to what is going on the universe. Changing World Global is not Enough…get up to speed on the state of all popular music and include Afrobeats Artist of the Year, Song of the Year, Album of the Year and all the subcategories that this genre so deserves – just as an other respected and recognized musical genre. #MadeInLagos Album and song Essence, was clearly in the wrong category, how can you ignore the song Essence, The song by Wizkid, and Tems that was covered and remixed by Justin Bieber, you seem to isolate under global, when it should have been in song of the year category. This is a mis representation and a neglectful categorization of Music ONCE AGAIN. Give Afrobeats the representation it deserves. You are ignoring 1.3 billion people it will only make us Rise!! Afrobeats in our hearts Africabeats to the world! READ STATISTICS ON 3rd SLIDE”

Ex-husband drags Xandy Kamel on social media again
King Kaninja, the ex-husband of actress Xandy Kamel, has reacted to charges that his casual attitude and infidelity spree ended their two-year marriage.
His recent outburst comes in response to an interview Xandy gave on Delay Show, in which she declared, among other things, that she was the family earner, rented their house, and paid all the expenses.
She also said she had over GH30,000 in her account at the time of her wedding, but that amount had been reduced to barely over GH100 in two years.
Xandy also discussed the trauma she faced in her marriage, which cost her two pregnancies.
“I was still in my wedding gown when the marital problems began.” People began phoning to tell me they were having an affair with my husband. In my marriage, I’ve only felt happy for 5 minutes. We didn’t even have sex. “I think we made love about six times in our one year together,” a depressed Xandy admitted.
Kaninja claims the marriage collapsed because Xandy was more preoccupied with her lesbian lovers rather than their marriage.
He added that his ex-wife portrayed the victim as merely a front to hide her embarrassment.
Kaninja stated that Xandy is unsuitable for marriage since she cannot even arrange her matrimonial bed or clean it.
Even routine household duties, he claimed Xandy’s mother was doing.
Kaninja, who had opted not to respond, stated that he felt compelled to clear his name.
He claims he hasn’t spoken up because he doesn’t want to get involved in the dirt like his ex-wife.
“The reason I don’t pay attention to some of this news is that eagles and pigs aren’t natural enemies.” Pigs adore playing in the mud, therefore there is no need to accompany them there. “When you follow them, you become dirty like them,” he grumbled.
Kaninja stated that if Xandy did not stop firing, he would be forced to unleash all of the bombshells.
