Y'all should shut the bleep up and stop shouting "He's immature" "He needs to be humble"... Bla bla bla....

Burna is nobody's mate!. He made it on his own and he doesn't give a bleep about anybody's opinion on his career!.


Y'all keep wailing "He's arrogant" "He'll soon fall" but yet He came back TWICE AS TALL Globally

I didn't read this post. But when I first listened to hisTwice As Tall song I immediately liked his confidence.

The song gave me goose bumps

No sir, you didn't do it on your OWN!
You have a whole generation of artists, producers, promoters, DJs, managers etc to thank.

Big shout out to Junior and pretty, Alex o, mike okri, De remedies, plantation bois, majek fashek, styl plus, tribes records, storm records, dove records, Kennis music and a lot more for paving the way for kids like burna boy and co.

TBH burna boy did it on his own,
It was his hard work, persistent and talent that got him to be nominated and even when he lost out, he came back even stronger the following year despite nay-sayers predicted he won't be near a nomination list after his loss to Angelique kidjo.
With All that said, despite his Grammy win,. Tuface Idibia still remains my undisputed GOAT in the afrobeats/pop genre..
Special mentions to psquare, Wizkid, & D'banj..
Remove psquare. Most of their songs are not original compositions.

Most Nigerian men follow the crowd that is why they dont go far in life.

You dey mind Nigerians and their stupid love for false humility?
They want him to act as if he didn't write the songs on his own...
when he was still underrated and said he'd win the Grammy, it was just insults that Nigerians had for him...
when African Giant lost at the Grammy's, His fellow Nigerians were celebrating...why?...because he's going to be proud.
It has now become a taboo for one to be proud of his own work?
Now he's finally won and these idiot.s want to tell him how to celebrate his own win.

He said he did it on his own and that is exactly what happened. To helll with all you haters. You can all choke on your worthless opinions.

He is actually referring to people like you. Which beginning of his fall; imagine ordinary headies didn't give him any award atleast to buttress is chance of winning grammy since he has been nominated and it's something that will uplift nigeria music as a whole. So he is right when he said he did it alone.

This guy needs to shut the fc_uk up and move on abeg.
I salute his achievement but this braggado talk is just childish. You are not the only one to ever win a grammy, you may be the first Nigerian but there will be many. No idea is original, there's nothing new under the sun.

His winning a grammy this year is not only as a result of his hardwork, it is as a result of the foundation that has been laid out over the years, dating back to previous other Nigerian artistes.

One tree never makes a forest, Burnaboy needs to fall back and enjoy his time in the limelight while he he is here but he should also remember that nothing in this world lasts forever.

You are mentally sick and you are stuupid.

He can preach on any topic just like you too can display your mental illness on any thread without anyone complaining.

Preaching is not meant for Christian threads alone and It is even more necessary on threads like this.
Next time you see his sermons and the demons in your in skull protesting, tell them to calm down, that it's all about Jesus. Because He alone can redeem the world.

Stupid? It’s your perspective, bro.

The truth is that, the journey to the top would be easier if we have people who totally believe in us and support us.

In a system like ours, where “who you know determines your lot ” then, you don’t expect someone who struggled to get things done for himself by himself to have a different narration.

If you’ve ever been rejected several times with no assurance of glimpse of light at the end of the tunnel, perhaps, you’d understand his viewpoint, better.

Amidst rejection and unfavorable atmosphere, it takes faith in God, perseverance, strong willed, doggedness to stay afloat.

I guess he had a very rough beginning, however, he never gave up on himself.

truth is a lot of Nigerian musicians that came before Burna boy actually cleared the land laid the foundation and burna only built on it,

he samples Fela's beats and songs a lot, I will say if fela's kids had worked as hard as Bob Marley's kids worked to fellow their fathers footsteps, they could have won multiple Grammys by now just like Bob Marley's kids

burna boys mom and grand father who both worked with fela contributed a lot to burna boys success

Complete bollocks ❗❗

Fela does not have a single GRAMMY nomination.

Bleep 'em all haters bruv!. Burna Boy that they didn't accept and they didn't even want back then. Nigga kept on pushing without 'em. Most Nigerians never listened to the Niggas songs back then until lately that they realized he's on the path to greatness. Now they want him to bow down and be dedicating his success to 'em. Really?.

Meanwhile some of these people stopped talking to their various family members that didn't support them while in school. Bunch of hypocrites!

For a long Burna was under rated, same way Patoranking is under rated. He refused to be boxed. Spoke out, when awards organizers sidelined him. Worked and push hard... And voila a golden gramophone is on the shelf. #odogwu
