Asake, Burna Boy, Rema Miss Out At 2024 Brit Awards

The trio of Nigerian music stars, Burna Boy, Asake, and Rema failed to win an award at the 2024 Brit Awards.

Naija News reports that the 2024 Brit Awards, the UK’s most prestigious music awards ceremony, was held at London’s 02 Arena on Saturday, March 2, 2024.

Burna Boy and Asake were contenders for the prestigious title of Best International Act of the Year, but unfortunately, they were defeated by the talented American artist SZA.

In addition, Rema’s captivating track ‘Calm Down’ faced tough competition and did not secure the title of Best International Song of the Year, which was claimed by Miley Cyrus’ enchanting tune ‘Flowers.’

However, despite these setbacks, Rema managed to leave a lasting impression on the audience by delivering an electrifying performance of his chart-topping hit ‘Calm Down’ during the ceremony.

It is worth noting that Rema’s remarkable achievement of performing at the BRIT Awards made him the second African artiste to grace the stage, following in the footsteps of Burna Boy’s remarkable performance in 2019.
