Davido, Wizkid, Burna Boy nominated for 2024 MOBO Awards [Full List]

 

Nigerian singers Wizkid, Davido, and Burna Boy are among eight Nigerian artists nominated for the forthcoming MOBO Awards.

Wizkid, Davido, Burna Boy, Asake, Rema, Ayra Starr, and Adekunle Gold will battle it out in the Best African Music Act category.

Also nominated in the category are South African duo Tyla and Uncle Waffles and Cameroon’s Libianca.

However, the Nigerian representation does not stop there as P2J, a music producer, bagged a nomination in the Best Producer category.

While Nigerian gospel singer Limoblaze was nominated in the Best Gospel Act category. He will contest the category with Annatoria, Guvna B, Triple O, and others.

This is, however, the first time since 2017 that no Nigerian artist was nominated in the Best International Act category.

The 2024 MOBO Awards is billed to hold on February 7, 2024, at Utilita Arena Sheffield in Sheffield, United Kingdom.
