The artist triumphed with her hit single "Push 2 Start," overcoming formidable competition from a field predominantly featuring Nigerian talents. Other contenders in the category included Burna Boy’s "Love," Davido’s "With You" featuring Omah Lay, Ayra Starr, and Wizkid’s "Gimme Dat," along with "Hope & Love" by Eddy Kenzo and Mehran Matin.
The Best African Music Performance category, established to highlight African sounds on a global scale, once again underscored Nigeria’s strong representation, with Burna Boy, Davido, and Ayra Starr all receiving nominations.
