At times I wonder about the guy...seems he sleeps online..you open a new thread you see him among the first 5 commenters..
Doesn't he go to Church, market, mall, visit friend and relatives? Abi he is those kind of people who you would go out with, you will talking they would be pressing phone, you guys would be crossing they will be pressing phone

Hey, hold it there!

He doesn't hv attendance online more than an average NLder, bt u guys keep castigating dt he comments on every thread simply because He wldn't write what u guys really wanna see dt suits u!

If he had been writing 2 ur taste & preference, u wldn't care if he comments on every single thread!

Abeg, mek una shun! shocked

Abegi e don do ...Nigerians with this 'haters' mentality ....everything hates this ....haters that! You don win you don win ...let go angry


A Nigerian finally won the Grammy’s for an indigenous body of work and what his country men have to say about it is that “we won’t hear word now”...you don’t expect him to spark?
Or he should act like you guys don’t actually hate him?

You don't get it, he's not referring to his fans or his mom or his close pals. He was referring to those haters who shaded him the last 2 years, if you visit his Twitter regularly you'll see all sorts of hate comment from so called fanatics of other musicians. Na real war, so let my guy celebrate how he deems fit!

If you really love him, you would not want him to go to hell.

Remember, Grammy Award is not a licence to heaven.

That is where the problem is. He couldn't have done it on his own. Forget his efforts and all. The criticism and rejections was actually what propelled him and he does not need to ascribe all perfection to himself but to God that grants him the grace. The statement credited to him is unnecessary and needless.
He did that.

No one is saying he shouldn't talk but I mean ....why start playing the pity-party blame game. Ofcourse many probably didn't want him to win because of his garrulous and arrogant manners but despite that, he ought to sound humble and embrace peace and be well behaved. Have you heard Wizkid say anything since he won ....but no this one go make like say everyone should be lying down for him to walk on. Abeg make park one side jooor!

This statement is the beginning of his fall. He didn't need to say the stupid things he said.

The 'kid' is already throwing subtle shades at 'those' who won grammy with collaborative efforts.

las-las, I knew it would get to ds but i didn't expect it to cone from him.

Abeg be quiet! Self made does not mean alone, it means not relying on the sponsorship or finances of others, in the music industry it means not signing your life away to producers/marketers etc. Dude could have blown a long time ago if he signed with Mavin or some hotshot record company but he didn't, dude worked on himself, gave his fans what they wanted and God handled the rest.

The guy is a fool. He is not even that popular in Nigeria. Instead of him to use the grammy win to build his Nigerian fan base he is running his mouth like faulty faucet. When guys like 2baba, 9ice, Flavor etc. can anchor concerts in retirement this guy will be lucky to fill a primary school assembly. He needs to get to work. His latest songs are not palatable to Nigerians, that's a fact.

The thing that pain me most is that more talented and humble guys like 2baba, 9ice and Flavor did not win grammy but this half-baked performer who is extremely noisy/arrogant wins it. Life no get balance.

“He ought to sound humble”
As expected...Nigerians, the ever-present custodians of humility want to tell somebody how to celebrate his award. He shouldn’t make too much noise, so that everybody will like him.
Wizkid won a certificate of participation, not an award...and it was for the video, not his own body of work. That’s why he won’t even tweet about it.
Burna didn’t tell anyone to lie on the ground...only God knows why him celebrating his win is equivalent to that for you.
He simply said he remembers those who didn’t want him to win, that they don’t realize that his win is their win. He said he won it on his own (as it is his body of work), and then he thanked the people who believed in him and also worked with him to achieve the album...what exactly is you people’s problem now?

He certainly didn't lie about that cos most Nigerians didn't want him to win the last year's Grammy due to his arrogance.

I won't say they prayed against him but clearly didn't want him to be the first to win the grammy. And what we all feared is already playing out. His already bloated ego has already become magnified beyond telescopic levels.

And what makes you think that God is not glorified with his endeavors and achievement? If you truely know God like you think you do, you will understand that God derives joy in the success if his children. God is even more proud of Burna Boy than most of you "must be born again or die" christians. Because he is using his God-given talent,, and doing it so well as a matter of fact. Religion is a lifestyle. Love God, love your neighbor, give to the poor, and mind your business. When you do these thing you are a child of God. Jesus did not give you an instruction to go to church, but whatever you do Jesus is the way to the kingdom of God. So if you are child of God be happy cuz Burna boy is using his talent. Ask God for your talent so you can make an impact. Religion and churching, preaching and praying are definately not talent, because those are the right things every human do. What is your talent?

Burna boy will be fine? Hehas almost double Spotify listeners than either Wizkid or Davido. He knows a large percentage of his fan base isn’t from here. Nigerians didn’t give a care for his music before...as they saw he was going higher, they decided to stan one of their own. That’s when he gained a major fan base here who actually like his music.
Those his Nigerian Outsiders and the foreign population are his target market. There’s no reason for him to change his style and start making the noise that typical Nigerians like. Even Wizkid’s new album, the typical Nigerian doesn’t care for the music there, but a large Nigerian base still listen to it.
We also have Brymo, Bez, Asa, Santi, Ric Hassani, Chike. How many typical Nigerians listen to their music which is actually good?
Those who like their work will find them and listen to them...the others should sort themselves out with other artists.

I know he must show his arrogance, it 8s in his DNA.

Even 8f you did it on your own, remember it was the acceptance of your song by the people that got you nominated and it was this people thst did it for you with the GOD factor ofcourse so you don't need this type of arrogance.

Who are the "you all" that were praying for you not to win? Why not rather thank those that prayer for you?

Bboy, you are a kid, immature, arrogant, ungrateful and therefore you are an empty barrel.

Grammy or no Grammy, there are still better Music artistes in Nigeria you can't even match up with... Biko calm down.

Even me I will still choose Davido anyday over you.

That was why people pray that he shouldn't win. Burna Boy is immature. He needs to learn humility from 2Face Idibia.

An artist's humility can make people pray they win an award they don't even deserve. That's what humility does. It makes people love you regardless of your talent.

I see your point. My issue is his arrogance outweighs his talent. If guys like 2baba, 9ice, KizzDaniel, Tekno, FlavorNabania etc. can be humble who da Bleep is burna? I have listened to all his songs - and he does not have more than 6 songs in his whole life that you can even consider 'good.' And please don't compare him to Chike, Asa or Brymo. Please that is an insult to REAL talent. Burna no reach that level at all at all.

The difference between him and wizkid is that wizkid actually knows how to deliver songs that Nigerians like. Burna does not. That is the fact.
