Becoming a voting member, the Nigerian hitmaker will be part of a global community of music professionals who determine the awards in the 2026 GRAMMY ceremony.
Confirming his nomination, the Recording Academy shared a video of Davido and other members in an Instagram post on Tuesday.
It wrote, “Creating a song or an album takes heart, time, and dedication. ✨ That’s why Recording Academy members including #Davido, #ravynlenae, #offsetyrn, #jessiereyez, #zacbrownband, #anneakikomeyers, #miles.minnick, #mayaelizabethmusic, #damiensneed, #damarismusica, and #stewart_copeland are sharing why your participation matters.”
The move gives the Feel crooner, who earned three GRAMMY nominations in 2024, a vote in the Academy’s nomination and final-ballot processes.
Speaking on the milestone, Davido said:
“Understanding the importance of how our voices are heard, I am participating in the GRAMMY Award process. It is a game-changer. I have learned that voting empowers you to have a say in what is considered and voted on in each season. I am honoured to be part of the Recording Academy community, and I look forward to voting.”
Davido’s inclusion follows a wider push by the Recording Academy to broaden and diversify its membership, a trend that has seen increasing representation from African artists and other international acts.
The academy added that voting for the 2026 GRAMMY will open in less than 2 weeks.
“Recording Academy voting members: review the ballot, listen, and vote early, starting October 3,” it added.
