Lovy Longomba lands singer Azalea a Grammy

Heads Up

Lovy Longomba

Lupita Nyong’o is not the only one shining in the US.

Another Nairobian, Lovy Longomba, has been nominated for a Grammy. Lovy, who relocated to Obama land about seven years ago, helped to co-write beauty turned emcee Iggy Azalea’s Change Your Life featuring her mentor, TI.

The song has already received more than 40 million views on YouTube.

Lovy could not hide his excitement about this news: “I still can’t believe this. A boy from Africa with a dream, now the door to the Grammy’s is open... #GODISWORKING. Thanks to my family... we did it.”

Even fellow famed music producer, Adam Messenger, congratulated Lovy on Twitter. Lovy Longomba is Congolese musician Awilo Longomba’s nephew.

His father, Lovy Longomba Snr, was a member of Super Mazembe, while their grandfather, Vicky Longomba, was a member of TPOK Jazz.

Together with his brother Christian, they have a successful musical career in Kenya, where they are fondly remembered for their hits such as Vuta Pumz, Dondosa, Shika More and Chukua.

They later relocated to the US where they have worked with various established American musicians and released a couple of songs, including; What You Like, Got Paid and Queen.
