BabaIbo:


Are you OK?

What is my business with where he's from, how does that affect national issue?
I know that guy is not from southsouth, he's just out to make it look like there's fight between igbo n southsouth, that's why I attacked him

How does that affect National issue? Talk about shifting post.
You know that guy is not from South south.....lol
Did he told you that. You are even lazy to use the Google to know more about him.
He is just out to make.....blah blah. Sorry bro but this doesn't sound logical.

Didn't they teach u English in primary one
Ikpummadu ikpumumu
I said technically
The guy doesn't even associate himself with anything Igbo
His hero is fela
If a Ghanian listens to his songs they would think he is yoruba ,I won't lie,I used to think he was Yoruba
He is just Igbo by tribe
I doubt he even knows any Igbo words than popular Igbo slangs
Lol
u see him calling a whole Igbo tribe that he belongs to Easterners,and u think he considers himself Igbo?
Note: I'm not saying Burna boy is Yoruba
I'm just stating facts

Please maybe am missing something...is Burna boy not a Yoruba ?

hammerF1:



[s]There is Ijoid and Igboid.


These are the mixed group.


Burna Boy is not Ijaw but from an Igboid group.


His last name is Igbo.


Rivers State is largely Igboid.


Whilst Bayelsa is largely Ijoid.


Not everybody in Bayelsa is Ijaw.


Likewise not everybody in Rivers is Igbo.


There are Igboid in Bayelsa and Ijoid in Rivers[/s].

Just because a name sounds like one found in your tribe doesn't make it a derivative.

Like Osigwe which can be found in Auchi and Igboland.

Is there any name similar to Damini in igbo?


What of Ronami?

BabaIbo:

You need updating, she claim her mom's side... go and check

She claim her mum side? Well, I don't argue blindly. Bring the proof from Internet.
Meanwhile, y'all jumping up and down that Burna boy is Igbo while he never claimed that, rather he even used interview to mock you. While can't you allow Burna boy too to claim his mum side as you said Yemi Alade did.
Waiting for the proof sha.

The is what I'm telling u. It is interest and vibes bro.

I never knew who naira Marley is until efcc arrested him and I watch these media stations u mentioned a lot.

He doesn't act like Igbo, i think he hate associating himself with igbos.

And he love associating with Yoruba


A dog might associate with Wolves doesn't make him a wolve

nnokwa042:
thats the worst statement to make by burna boy ,in nigeria no tribe i repeat no tribe can match igbo peoples in appreciating music ,igbo people love good music no matter where the music is from,do you know that shina peters used to perfom in traditional marriages in igbo land then.do you that shina peters sang a full album for morris ibekwe ?do you know that many ghananian musicians were aba and onitsha based back in the lates 70s and 80s?do you know back in the 80s igbo people has been using odoyewu as a nick name i was even thinking then thats is an igbo name ,what of ikwokirikwo music from congo?sotey even fuji musician ayinde wasiu sang for morris ibekwe and izuchukwu transporter dan ubajiaka?burna boy grew up in ibadan with his mum so he did not mingle with igbos just like yemi alade did not mingle with yorubas when she was growing up,

You are right. Burna boy prefers Yoruba culture and people. Just like Yemi Alade prefers Igbo culture and people.

nototribalist:
Burner boy, we love all musicians davido, Tiwa savage, wizkid Kiss Daniel. All these artist I mentioned above use 90% of pidgin so that even aboki can relate.

For instance, who would have believed that Mr Real is from Anambra. But he sings in 80% Yoruba. People in the east vibes to his melody but don't understand what he's saying.

For instance, people in Enugu will get excited about Davido or Kizz Daniel than Mr. Real.

Just like how Phyno sings in 90% igbo language, his craft won't get people too excited in Ijebu Ode than Enugu.

But all the same I love all Nigerian musicians, and I thank them for making us proud

What you have just done is taken the hammer of fairness, decency and unity and slammed it on the head of division , and stocking of dis-unity which is exactly the point of this article!!!!

See how Burner boy is using his personal opinion to play with ur brain. The show he is talking about was Headlined by a Yoruba Artist (Wizkid). 3 edition of dat Show was headlined by Yoruba Artists( Wizkid, Davido, Wizkid) . Timaya and Duncan mighty came for dat same show, and the crowd went gaga. Are they not from same region as Burna boy? Why would Yoruba Artist Headline d show if we don't love him? Terry G has visited Enugu for shows in 2012 like 4 times (in a year). Burner boy was expecting to move d crowd like Flavour around 2014, while he wasn't as big as flavour dat year. A lot of Nairalanders are sounding unintelligent, and its not cool.
