This historic moment marked the first live performance by an Afrobeats star on the esteemed Grammy stage.

Dressed in a red rhinestone-adorned quilted jacket, matching gray pants, and a snapback, Burna Boy exuded confidence as he celebrated Nigerian heritage.
The performance seamlessly transitioned from “City Boys” to the iconic “Sittin’ On Top of The World,” with Brandy joining the stage to deliver smooth vocals in a black trench coat and striking scarlet boots.
