A 1953 Mercedes 230E that we worked on back in 2018 has made an appearance in a music video of two recent Grammy winners. Nigeria Afrobeats stars Burna Boy and Wizkid collected Grammy Awards last week.
Burna Boy won the Best Global Music Album category award while Wizkid won the Best Music Video for his song with Beyoncé; Brown Skin Girl. It was the second year that Burna Boy, real name Damini Ogulu, had been nominated. This year he won with his album Twice As Tall. His album has been described as “a masterclass in the vibe and hustle that have made Burna Boy an international musical force. [He] continues to torch limitations, seamlessly blending styles and genres and fearlessly fuelling the fire heating the melting pot of pop, Afrobeat, dancehall, reggae and more,”
The Mercedes W123 (230E) was a huge sensation and the first to be offered in estate form. Known for its practicality and classy build, its a fantastic affordable classic.
