Loool this should’ve happened 20 years ago we’d have had more of a chance winning back then compared to now. Imagine if Loi, Ndombolo ya solo, Effrakata, Opération Dragon, were nominated during those years.

I'm in America, dude this category is among the many others that aren't televised. African music doesn't play on the radio or music stations here

When people think of African music they only know Burna Boy and just the typical afrobeat stuff.
