Angelique Kidjo, the iconic Beninese-French singer-songwriter, has submitted her track ‘Joy’ featuring Afrobeats star Davido for consideration in two categories at the 2025 Grammy Awards.
The much-anticipated 67th Grammy Awards ceremony is scheduled to take place on February 2, 2025, in Los Angeles.
Ahead of the award ceremony, several global artistes have begun to submit their projects for nomination consideration.
In a recent Facebook post, the 64-year-old megastar announced that she submitted the song in the ‘Best African Music Performance’ and ‘Record of the Year’ categories.
Kidjo entered another of her works ‘Sunlight to My Soul’ in the ‘Best Global Music Performance’ and ‘Song of the Year’ categories.
The songstress also appreciated the artistes involved for their contributions and collaborators.
In August, the Beninese singer released ‘Joy’ featuring Davido. The track follows the success of their first collaborative song ‘Na Money‘ in 2023.
Kidjo is known for her diverse musical influences and creative music videos. She has won five Grammy Awards and is also the 2023 Polar Music Prize laureate.
She is regarded as one of the greatest singers in Africa. Aside from her incredible music career, Kidjo is an actress and activist.
Davido, on the other hand, has firmly established himself as one of the prominent artistes out of Africa. He has also won several awards.
The singer was nominated in three categories at the 2023 Grammy Awards. He, however, failed to win all of his nominations.
