Talking during the media chat, Davido said, “When I was hanging out with the other nominees before the awards in LA, I never thought I would win because I have worked with almost everyone on that nomination list, and they are amazing artists. The African category of the Best International Act was a tough one so when I was announced as the winner, I was absolutely stunned and elated!”

A congratulatory Ice Prince also commented on Davido’s win. “I was really excited when I heard them call Davido’s name… he is a really talented artist and it’s encouraging to see African artists being recognized for their hard work.”
