Burna Boy, Fela Kuti Appear On Rolling Stone’s List Of 200 Greatest Singers Of A by Azeemokoya: 7:20am On Jan 03, 2023
Afrobeat flagbearer, Burna Boy and the genre’s pioneer, Fela Anikulapo-Kuti have made Rolling Stone’s list of 200 greatest singers of all time.
In the list released on 1st January, 2022 Rollingstone ranked the top 200 singers of all time and Nigerian Afrobeat pioneer Fela Kuti and Afrobeats icon Burna Boy both made the list.

Burna Boy the Grammy winning megastar whose music is taking Afrobeats to the global stage was placed at NO. 197.

Describing Burna Boy, Rollingstone said:

“A Nigerian cultural giant, Burna Boy is the ambassador of Afrobeats as a global movement that can feel equally at home climbing the European charts and maintaining a subtle emotional connection with past African genres like highlife. Burna’s voice is sweet like caramel, but it can also soar on slickly produced tracks like his recent megahit “Last Last,” or the 2019 gem “Anybody,” amped up by deep bass accents and insanely sophisticated polyrhythms.

His vocal lines find inspiration in everything from hip-hop and R&B to hooky pop and dancehall — the world is his playground”

Good....
Nigeria is a great nation and would be great again. We just need a visionary leader to drag it back to the right lane.
