Hazel Oyeze Onou, also known as Whitemoney, a reality TV star and singer, has stated that he no longer has any interest in the prestigious Grammy Awards. The winner of BBNaija Season 6 expressed his belief that the American award has been tainted and has diminished in its significance.
In a recent discussion with content creator Egungun, Whitemoney shared that his focus has shifted towards the local Headies Awards instead. Previously vocal about his aspirations to win a Grammy, he now sees more value in aiming for recognition within his own country’s music industry.
He said,
“The way things are going now, Grammy don cast. Make we manage Headies. I’m not sure if I’m still pursuing my desire of winning Grammys. Now I’m pursuing any award that keeps me relevant. Because after what Grammy organisers did to our superstars, Davido and Burna Boy at the last award ceremony, it’s now looking like they are using Nigeria for publicity stunt.
“But never say never. My style of music is unique. If it takes me to the Grammys, no wahala.”
