Did Tyla’s “Water” Deservedly Win the Grammy? In the maiden edition of the Star Throne TV Program – “Star Throne Review” show host, Afolabi Silver dives deep into the controversy surrounding Tyla’s “Water” winning the Grammy for Best Afrobeats Category in 2024.

Silver starts by acknowledging the excitement surrounding Tyla’s win and the ongoing debate about its legitimacy. He then takes viewers on a journey to understand the Grammy’s often-confusing criteria and voting process.

Looking beyond the hype:

Silver explains that the Recording Academy, the body behind the Grammys, judges music based on artistic merit, technical proficiency, and overall significance. This means they consider factors like songwriting, production, vocals, and cultural impact, rather than just focusing on popularity.

Breaking down the votes:

The voting process for the Grammys is shrouded in secrecy, but it’s known that voting members are music professionals, such as producers and engineers, who cast their ballots in confidential rounds.

Dissecting “Water”:

Silver then dives into “Water” itself, highlighting its catchy rhythm, soaring vocals, and lyrics that paint a picture of resilience and hope, as reported by many music critics. However, he doesn’t shy away from the question of whether it truly outshined the other contenders in the category.

Comparing the contenders:

Silver reminds viewers of the other strong nominees in the category, including dancefloor anthems like Asake & Olamide’s “Amapiano”, the genre-bending “City Boys” by Burna Boy, the soulful “Unavailable” by Davido and Musa Keys, and the fiery statement of Ayra Starr’s “Rush”.
