Nigerian TikToker and livestreamer Peller has sparked online reactions following Davido’s loss at the 2026 Grammy Awards, where the Nigerian superstar was beaten by South African singer Tyla in the Best African Music Performance category.
The 68th Grammy Awards, hosted by Trevor Noah, took place at the Crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles. Tyla emerged winner in the African music category with her hit song “Push 2 Start,” edging out Davido, Burna Boy, Ayra Starr, and other top African nominees.
While the ceremony celebrated several global stars—including Kendrick Lamar, who won multiple awards such as Best Rap Album for “GNX” and Record of the Year for “Luther” featuring SZA—Davido’s loss drew emotional reactions from fans back home.
Peller Calls Out Carter Efe
In a video that has since gone viral, Peller expressed visible disappointment over Davido’s defeat and directed his frustration at skit maker and entertainer Carter Efe, whom he jokingly blamed for the outcome. Peller described Carter Efe as “bad luck,” a remark that quickly caught the attention of social media users.
His outburst followed an earlier statement by Carter Efe during a livestream, where he had confidently predicted Davido’s Grammy win and made a controversial bet to back his claim. After the results were announced, Peller’s reaction reignited discussions around the prediction.

The incident triggered a wave of mixed reactions online. Some users found humor in the situation, teasing both Peller and Carter Efe, while others sympathized with Peller’s disappointment over Davido’s loss. Several commenters noted that the exchange appeared lighthearted, though it underscored how emotionally invested fans were in the outcome.
The moment has since added to the growing list of viral reactions surrounding the 2026 Grammy Awards, particularly regarding the Best African Music Performance category and the intense support African artists continue to receive from their fans.
