Grammy Awards 2022 Full Winners List

Angelique Kidjo grammy 2022

The curtains have drawn and fallen on the biggest event in the music industry – the Grammy Awards. Though no Nigerian artist scooped the bell-shaped accolade, a few of them won by association. If you watched the event, then you know we’re referring to Angelique Kidjo’s winning speech where she thanked Nigerian artists Yemi Alade, Burna Boy, and Mr. Eazi for their input in her critically acclaimed album, Mother Nature which won the Best Global Music Album, a category that gave a nod to Wiz Kid.

Machala as well as other Nigerian artists including Femi Kuti and Burner boy also received a Grammy nomination in the category of Best Global Performance but they lost out to Pakistan musician Aroof Aftab’s Mohabbat. Jon Batiste who received the most nominations (11) when the nomination list was published in November 2021 went home with the most awards – a whopping 5!

South African comedian Trevor Noah immaculately steered the three-hour event which was held at Las Vegas’ MGM Grand Garden Arena. Here is a full list of all winners of the 2022 Grammy Award.

Odumodublvck drops 23-track Industry Machine album

Nigerian rapper Odumodublvck has officially dropped his highly anticipated 23-track album, Industry Machine, featuring powerhouse collaborations with Wizkid, Davido, Skepta, Seun Kuti, and several others. Produced by Telz and P.Priime, the project seamlessly fuses hip-hop and Afrobeats, underscoring Odumodublvck’s versatility and bold sonic direction. Within hours of its release, the album soared to No. 1 on Apple Music Nigeria’s Top Albums chart, signaling both widespread acclaim and the rapper’s growing dominance in the music industry.

Among the standout tracks, “Big Time” featuring Wizkid debuted at No. 9 on Apple Music’s Top Songs chart, earning praise for its infectious rhythm, Wizkid’s captivating verse, and Odumodublvck’s sharp lyricism. Fans and critics alike have hailed Industry Machine as a defining moment in Nigerian music, celebrating its high production value and collaborative depth. Speaking on the project, Odumodublvck described it as “a celebration of creativity, hustle, and the evolution of the industry,” cementing his reputation as one of the country’s most innovative and influential rap voices.

For a while now, followers of Nigerian music have been keenly aware of the concept of the ‘INDUSTRY MACHINE.’ The swaggering phrase has been an integral part of the digital vocabulary of Nigerian rapper and singer, ODUMODUBLVCK, hinting at the highly anticipated follow-up to his 2023 mixtape, ‘EZIOKWU’, which spawned several hit tracks and established his reputation as one of Nigeria’s finest Hip-Hop acts.

In the two years since ‘EZIOKWU,’ ODUMODUBLVCK has only grown more unstoppable, racing to the top of charts in Nigeria on multiple occasions while showcasing the full breadth of his amorphous Okporoko sound on songs like “100 Million” and “NOT ALL THAT” as well as on collabs like “JUJU,” “Funds,” and “Flako.”

Seven months after the surprise drop of ‘THE MACHINE IS COMING,’ ODUMODUBLVCK has finally released ‘INDUSTRY MACHINE,’ bringing a thrilling conclusion to months of anticipation with a blockbuster 23-track release that runs through the full gamut of the Abuja rapper’s fascination and beliefs across a variety of soundscapes.

Throughout ‘INDUSTRY MACHINE,’ ODUMODUBLCK glides between euphoric party starters (“BANZA BOY, “VINICIUS,” and “GROOVING”) and gritty Rap joints (“UNAWARE,” “IF YOU LIKE GYM,” and “LAYI WASABI.”). At different turns, he reveals a new layer to his work without losing touch with the uniquely Abuja perspective that broke him through.

Tiwa Savage opens up on finding a partner – ‘I am scared of falling in love,’

Tiwa Savage

After being scarred by her previous relationships, singer Tiwa Savage has admitted that the idea of falling in love now scares her.

Savage, who appeared on Hot 97FM, stressed that her relationship experiences have her at a point where she would potentially project her insecurities onto the next man who walks into her life.

“I’m scared of love, I’m so scared that I feel like if someone comes along with the right intentions, I’m so scared that I won’t be able to recognise it. I might project onto him, like if he doesn’t call me back in ten minutes, I assume the worst.”

She continued, “I’m praying that the right one doesn’t come and I don’t recognise it. I really am scared 100 percent. I just play around with it, but deep down I want love.”

Back in July 2025, she had joked about wanting a man who looked like British Nigerian rapper Skepta, and now she has added that she also wants someone kind and rich.

In a recent interview on the Joe Budden Podcast, she spoke about a relationship with a famous person who insisted that their romance stay private.

“He told me he didn’t want us to go public,” she said while recounting how her then partner went as far as flirting with women in her presence just to appear single to the public.

Tiwa Savage’s fear of romantic relationships is not unconnected to the messy split with her ex-husband and father of her son, Teebillz.

The singer and Teebillz got married in 2014, but their union only lasted 4 years as the couple parted ways in 2018 over claims of disharmony and infidelity.

Since her marriage ended, Tiwa Savage has been very private about her romantic relationships, while only leaving hints in her music and, more recently, in interviews.
