VeryDarkMan Prefers Davido to Win Best African Music Performance at 2026 Grammys

Nigerian social media influencer Vincent Martin Ots, popularly known as VeryDarkMan (VDM), shared his desire for Davido to win the Best African Music Performance at the 2026 Grammys, even though South African singer Tyla emerged as the winner with her hit song "Push 2 Start." Tyla's win marked her second victory in the category, having previously won in 2024. VeryDarkMan released a video questioning Tyla's win and expressing his preference for Davido to create a balance among the Afrobeat "big 3" artists.
Despite acknowledging the efforts of Burna Boy, Wizkid, and Ayra Starr, VeryDarkMan openly stated his wish for Davido to win the award. The social media influencer highlighted the need for balance and recognition within the Afrobeat community, particularly among the prominent artists.
