A week back, Burna Boy had set the social media streets on fire for a commentary he made during his live concert.
The artist hinted at a hierarchy in the industry, revealing that he stands apart from the acclaimed “Big 3,” consisting of himself, Davido, and Wizkid.
Netizens wasted no time expressing their disapproval, especially the loyal fans of Wizkid and Davido.
Last year, Burna Boy had angered many with his comment on Afrobeats in Nigeria.
The singer, in an interview, avowed that 90 percent of Afrobeat songs lack real-life experience and substance. He explained further by saying that artists aren’t saying anything worthwhile as he took a swipe at them over their lyrics.
While receiving his award, his junior colleague Rema took a shot at him for his disrespectful statement, stating that no matter what Burna Boy calls Afrobeats, they would all meet at Afrobeats award shows.
