Burna Boy Sends Message To Detractors, Critics And Doubters; Thanks Fans For Believing In Him

Afrobeat continues to trend in the global musical space, and one of its frontmen has again put the genre in the spotlight, albeit with words for his detractors. At a recent live performance in the UK, Burna Boy proudly held up a gleaming plaque. The plaque symbolised his remarkable accomplishment in the UK music industry – his album “I Told Them” had reached the number 1 on the charts. The audience cheered and applauded as Burna Boy stood on stage, basking in the glory of his success.

In recent years, the infectious beats of Afrobeats have captured the hearts of music lovers worldwide, even making their way into the UK Official Charts and shaping popular culture. This genre has given rise to numerous successful artists, including global icons like Wizkid and Davido and rising stars like Libianca. While homegrown British talent such as J Hus has also enjoyed chart-topping success on the Official Albums Chart, Burna Boy’s achievement as the first international Afrobeats star to earn a place in UK chart history is truly remarkable. At a packed London Roundhouse, Burna Boy was honoured with the Number 1 Award and celebrated his well-deserved victory on stage.

Burna Boy expressed his gratitude towards those who believed in him and his potential in a message. He also clarified that those who doubted him should know he had succeeded despite their lack of belief in him. Burna Boy used strong language in his message, saying “F*ck You” to those who didn’t support him.
