The 66th Grammys Recording Academy has hinted that Tyla’s debut album, which will be released soon, might be the next big African project to win a Grammy Award after Burna Boy’s Twice As Tall.

In a separate interview yesterday, Saint said the event will offer the opportunity to participate in the love celebrations together with their fans.

“We mostly sing about love. This is a chance to reflect on the realities that love brings which are both positive and negative. This will be a special moment for us as artists and our fans too,” he said.

The Valentine’s Day spirit will linger on longer as Club Illusionz in Lilongwe will host a gig dubbed Old School Night on Friday which will feature the R ‘n’ B group Legends Band alongside DJ Nathan Tunes, VJ Ice, DJ Reubie and DJ Skippy.
