The Grammys are known for being the biggest night in music, where artists from all genres come together to celebrate their achievements and performances. But as the saying goes, “the show must go on” and this year’s Grammys were no exception with drama both on and off the stage
We’ll take a behind-the-scenes look at the drama that unfolded and what really happened at the 65th Annual Grammy Awards
Diddy Calls Out Burna Boy Over Grammy Loss
Following the ceremony, Diddy took to IG amid his messages of love to snipe Burna Boy taking credit for the Afrobeats star’s first and only Grammy win, while scoffing at the notion he thought his latest project, “Love, Damini” would be just as successful.
Burna Boy lost out on his Best Global Music Performance yesterday … further proving Diddy’s point and get this … even Burna Boy’s Nigerian fans appear to be riding with Puff and are demanding Burna Boy make things right — or fall off forever!!!
However Diddy continues to deny “sabotaging” Burna Boy’s Grammy win as speculated. The screenshot of the statement seemingly from Diddy went viral and he has responded stating that it is false and from a fake account. “This is fake,” Diddy commented on an Instagram page that had posted the screenshot.
Big Eye Slams Eddy Kenzo
Big Eye blames Eddy Kenzo’s failure to win a Grammy on selfishness. Through a post on his Facebook page, Big Eye accused Eddy Kenzo of keeping all international contacts and connections to himself for over nine years. He continued to express himself by saying that some people like Eddy Kenzo don’t deserve to use the motto “For God And My Country” because he only operates on the motto; “For God And Myself”.
Eddy Kenzo lost in the Best Global Music Performance category to South Africa’s Wouter Kellerman, Zakes Bantwini, and Nomcebo Zikode for their song Bayethe. Despite the disappointment, Eddy Kenzo has been praised by a number of musicians like Ykee benda, and Fik Fameica for elevating Ugandan music to a stage it had never been
BITTER TRUTH
It’s unfortunate that my neighbor didn’t succeed at Grammy Awards but my self what I think is, you never know if it was Big Eye, Azawi, Daddy Andre, Apass, Fik Fameica, Spice Diana, Sheebah, Lydia Jazmine, Rema, etc. Maybe so many international awards would have been in Uganda. But the Nigga kept all international contacts & Connections for himself for like 9years now. So some people don’t deserve to use the motto of “FOR GOD AND MY COUNTRY” coz inside their hearts there is “FOR GOD AND MY SELF”. Hope am not wrong to term it as being selfish.

Migos Rappers Quavo and Offset Fight Backstage at the Grammys
There’s clearly still serious bad blood between Migos’ rappers Quavo and Offset following the death of Takeoff … and those emotions boiled over backstage at the Grammys into a physical fight.
Sources at the show pointed out that just before Quavo took the stage to perform his song “Without You” as a tribute to Takeoff during the “In Memoriam” segment of the show, he and Offset got into a physical fight and had to be pulled apart.
“What tf look like fighting my brother yal n-ggas is crazy,” Offset tweeted shortly after TMZ‘s story surfaced. Quavo has yet to address the alleged incident.
While the video lends credence to reports of a fight between Quavo and Offset, the latter has denied getting into a scuffle with his cousin and collaborator.
