Nigerian Afrobeat sensation Yemi Alade has made headlines once again, declaring herself a winner even after missing out on a Grammy Award to fellow artist Tems.
The singer, known for her vibrant personality and unwavering confidence, shared her reflections and gratitude with her fans, encouraging them to stay resilient in the face of challenges.
Yemi Alade, affectionately called Mama Africa by her fans, embraced her Grammy nomination with grace and pride. Attending the event dressed as an Edo beauty, Yemi turned heads in her traditional outfit, blending culture with modern elegance.
Taking to Instagram, the talented artiste shared stunning photos and videos from the event, accompanied by inspiring words for her followers.
“I’m A Winner,” she began, emphasizing her journey of perseverance. I’m here because I didn’t stop believing, and even when doubt and naysayers counted me out, I always COUNTED MYSELF IN and surrounded myself with uplifters and truth tellers (not yes men).
‘Na who stop, e go stop for’ don’t stop dreaming, NOBODY KNOWS TOMORROW. Thank you to my Grammy Glam Team.”
Before the Grammy Awards ceremony, Yemi Alade proudly showcased her Grammy Nominees Medal, sharing official photos and videos from the Special Merit Awards Ceremony and Nominees Reception.
The singer expressed her surprise and gratitude at being recognized as a nominee for the prestigious 67th Grammy Awards. Fans and fellow celebrities showered her with praise, celebrating her milestone achievement.
This celebration comes after a turbulent period in Yemi Alade’s career. Last year, she openly criticized Cool FM, a popular Nigerian radio station, for allegedly removing all her songs from their platform.
Yemi detailed the rift’s origins, revealing that her absence from one of their December events led to the fallout. Despite her attempts at reconciliation and an apology, she claimed the station held onto their grievances, which she described as petty and unprofessional.
