Nigerian-American Artist “The Classic Man” Bags First Grammy Nomination

“Classic Man” singer earns first major nod.

Singer Jidenna has bagged a Grammy nomination for his song, Classic Man featuring labelmate Roman GainArthur. The song was nominated for the Best Rap/Song Collaboration alongside songs from Kendrick Lamar, Nicky Minaj, Big Sean and Common.

Jidenna shared his excitement over being nominated by tweeting: “Our 1st Grammy Nomination. I’m honored! I guess I need to start looking for a date now.”

The song released on the EP, Wondaland Presents: The Eephus, also has a remix featuring fellow nominee Kendrick Lamar.

Earlier this year, Jidenna found himself in some trouble with Nigerians when recanting his experience burying his father. It’s safe to say all that’s forgiven and we wish him luck.

The 58th annual Grammys will take place on February 15, 2016.
