The singer's performance at the award ceremony was ranked 6th best by Billboard of all the performances during the 2024 Grammy Awards night.

“Billboard in a statement, said, “For the first Afrobeats performance at the Grammys, Burna Boy pulled out all the stops. Backed by Brandy’s gorgeous vocals and 21 Savage’s detached, confident cool, Burna sang “Sittin’ on Top of the World” and demonstrated that is precisely where he belongs.

“The lush, expansive stage — depicting a residential city block – and clever costume design (the colour red tied all three performers together, despite their disparate styles) brought to mind an MGM golden era musical — and truthfully, the Nigerian star’s infectious energy and easy charm wouldn’t seem out of place in a Hollywood musical.”

However, Burna Boy could not go home with an award that night despite picking up four nominations before the award ceremony
