Entertainment analyst Alexander Fifi Abakah, in a conversation with YEN.com.gh, shared his thoughts on King Promise's chances of getting a Grammy nomination for the event's next edition.

He said:

"King Promise has gone on tours. Played a lot of shows and all that. But ask yourself, Grammys, where is the location that they focus on? USA, Europe. How is his song faring on that side? Not a chance. I will be really surprised if he gets nominated. I don’t see him getting it soon. More work needed to be done."
