Nigerians have remembered singer, 9ice, in the aftermath of Burna Boy’s African Giant album getting a Grammy nomination.
9ice had in his 2008 hit single ‘Street Credibility’ promised to bring home the revered award.
“Don’t doubt me I go bring home Grammy,” he sang featuring 2face Idibia.
Eleven years later, the singer has been unable to achieve the feat.
However, Nigerians on Twitter have begun rooting for Burna Boy and dragging 9ice for his failed promise.

I remember when 9ice said “Don’t doubt me i will bring home grammy” . I never knew he was talking about Burna Boy.
9ice is a prophet.

If 9ice had put in the efforts and money to market that album in Yankee, he’d have gotten a Grammy nom. https://twitter.com/_Ortodox/status/1197167127880437761 …

You people don’t know 9ice is a legend or you’re too young to know what his second album did in this country in 08? You cannot skip one song on that album. Only about seven albums have such power in nigerian history. Ten max

9ice didn’t really have the power of social media behind him. Different times. Plus, Kanye naming his album Ye had a bit to do

Burna Boy is about to fufil 9ice & Skales’ dream of winning the #GRAMMYs
Both artists wished & sang about it, but they stopped working.
