My prayer point is to win my Grammy nominations — Davido
Nigerian music sensation Davido has revealed that winning a Grammy Award is his 'prayer point' after making history with three nominations at this year's ceremony.
In a recent interview with GQ magazine, the 'Unavailable' hitmaker opened up on scoring the coveted nods - his first Grammy nominations.
"Everybody knows what one of my prayer points is now. I have been nominated for three Grammys. So, everybody knows what I am praying for every day I wake up," Davido told the publication.
Davido made history by securing three Grammy Award nominations in his first
entry in the prestigious global music awards.
The nominations for the 65th Grammy Awards were announced on Friday, November 10, 2023, with Davido earning nods in the Global Music Performance, African Music Performance, and Global Music Album categories.
