Former Senate President Bukola Saraki has congratulated his son, Seni, on his victory at 67th Grammy Awards.
Seni earned his first Grammy for his contribution to Bob Marley’s One Love soundtrack, which won Best Reggae Album.
In a post on X, Saraki expressed his joy at seeing his son’s passion recognized on the global stage, adding that he is “super proud” of him.
“Congratulations, Seni, on winning your first Grammy last night for your work on the Bob Marley: One Love sound track, which took home the award for Best Reggae Album!”, he wrote.
“Seeing you pour your heart into your passion and having it recognized on the global stage is an indescribable joy. Well done! We are super proud of you!
Reacting to the win, Seni expressed gratitude to all the artists and producers who contributed to the project’s success, including Nigeria’s Wizkid and Bloody Civilian.
“I appreciate them for taking on the songs, reinterpreting them, and doing them their own way. Artists like Bloody Civilian, Wizkid, Daniel Caesar, and Jessie Reyez”.
Bob Marley: One Love is a biographical film depicting the life of reggae icon, exploring how he overcome adversity and the journey behind his revolutionary music.
This is not Seni’s first major industry recognition.
In 2023, the Black Panther: Wakanda Forever soundtrack, a project he worked on as music consultant, earned four Grammy nominations.
A graduate of the London School of Economics and Political Science, Seni is the Chief Executive Officer, CEO, of the Native, a Lagos based music magazine he co-founded with Teni ‘Teezee’ Zaccheaus in 2016.
The publication celebrates music, style, and art while championing African sounds and culture.
