From the starting of 2019 to now it is safe to say this year is definitely all “Burna Boy Year” From releasing his hit album African Giant to performing at Coachella and a sold out show at London’s Wembley arena at the weekend Burna Boy has already had a stellar 2019, and it’s only getting better.

Via Okayafrica:
Over the weekend, Burnaboy added to his list of major wins by claiming the Best African Act award at the MTV Europe Awards which took place in Seville, Spain.
He beat out the likes of Nasty C, Teni the Entertainer, Togo’s TooFan, Harmonize and Prince Kaybee to earn the award.


Last year, it went to fellow Nigerian artist Tiwa Savage, who was the first female act to win the award. This marks the fourth year in a row that a Nigerian artist has claimed the title.

It wasn’t the only highlight of the artist’s weekend either. Last night, he performed a sold-out show at London’s Wembley (SSE) Arena, where he was joined on stage by the likes of Wizkid, Stormzy, Dave and M.Anifest.
According to Not Just Ok, he is the first “afrobeats” artist to sell out the SSE and he was presented a plaque during the show.
