2025 Grammys: Noah back as host

For the fifth year running, South African comedian and producer Trevor Noah will host the prestigious Grammy Awards.

The announcement comes ahead of the 67th GRAMMY Awards show, set to take place in Los Angeles on February 2, 2025.

Noah has been a major recipient of the awards ceremony since 2021, and his return marks a continuation of his popular presence at the event.

This year’s nominations also see a significant presence from Nigerian Afrobeats artists, particularly in the newly introduced Best African Music Performance category. Burna Boy has received a nomination for his popular track “Higher,” while Asake earned a nod for his collaboration with Wizkid on “MMS.”

Tems stands out as the only African musician with an impressive three nominations across various global music categories, further highlighting the growing influence of African music on the world stage. Other Nigerian artistes receiving nominations include Davido, Yemi Alade, and Lojay, solidifying the dominance of Nigerian talent in this year’s awards.
