His 5th studio album ‘Jungle Fever’ has been considered for nomination in the 64th Grammy Awards that will be held on January 31, 2022.

It isn’t Octopizzo’s ‘Jungle Fever’ that got considered for a Grammy nomination but he also has three other nomination considerations.

Octopizzo has been considered by the Recording Academy in four different categories; ‘Best Global Music Album’, ‘Best Global Music Performance’, ‘Best Rap Song’, and ‘Best Rap Performance’ with ‘Jungle Fever’ album, ‘Lela’ song, ‘Pockets’ and ‘Interlude’, and ‘Pockets’ and ‘Interlude’ respectively.

His record producer Ghanaian Stallion has also been nominated for the ‘Best Producer Of the Year Non-Classical’ on his contribution to the ‘Jungle Fever’ studio album.

Octopizzo’s team is one happy family at the moment thanks for all the Grammys consideration.
