Most music buffs will keep their eyes peeled on the Artist of the Year which is one of the top honours of the continental award. The category boasts 11 talents out of which Nigeria occupied four slots: Omah Lay, Wizkid, Burna Boy and Davido. It will be interesting to find out which of these artists take home the award on Sunday night which will also be televised.
