During the show in Los Angeles, Manana shared the stage with SA musicians Rowlene and Willinley. The musician then took to his Instagram account to share an appreciation post for the opportunity he got to perform in LA. \u201cI played my first show in LA, and man, it was special! And I got to share the stage with @willinleyy and @rowlene_sa. What a magical experience with a magical audience, so thanks to everyone who made the mission far and wide come out! All the love to @itstheimports for bringing all the Southern Africans together for this beautiful showcase, and a special thank you to the team at @tgisfiction, @winstonhouse, and @artisticintent!\u201d read the post.<\/p>\n

When Nigeria\u2019s Burna Boy\u2019s album \u2018Twice as Tall\u2019 came out on top in the Best Global Music Album category at the 63rd Grammy Awards, little did Manana know that the win would be a life-changing moment for him. He walked away with a Grammy for his contribution to a song on the album titled \u2018Time Flies\u2019, featuring Sauti Sol.<\/p>\n

He has already released three projects, which form part of a trilogy. As it is a continuation of the other. The first extended playlist (EP) was released in 2020, titled \u2018In the Beginning Was the End\u2019.<\/p>\n

The second EP was released in 2022, titled \u2018But could the moments in between\u2019, which builds on the sentiment of being in love and feeling it from the first EP, later in the same year, he dropped the final part, titled Comma. It is different from the previous two, but it remains honest and comes from a place of love. Together, the trilogy forms a short poem. It was during the release of the trilogy that Manana became a Grammy Award winner in 2021 for his contribution to a song, \u2018Time Flies\u2019, which forms part of Burna Boy\u2019s album, \u2018Twice as Tall\u2019.<\/p>\n
