there was absolutely no reason to make such a distateful comment and yes I read the post. Be honest with yourself, he needs to be smarter with interviews. Not everybody will see things the perspective he intended. No reason to give your fans any kind of impression that they are not loyal. Burna boy has alot of loyal fans and not because he is allegedly being recognized intl. Although I can agree he got alot of attention following the outside album, and songs like on the low, gbona, grew his fanbase, this is simply because, it has the kind of vibe Nigerians like. As far as intl market is concerned, he is still fresh and has alot of work to do. He now has the platform to sell his music worldwide, thats just the beginning tho, we would like to see him succeed because he is a rare talent.
He didn't make a distasteful statement. Its d person who wrote d story that decides to spin it. Take a look:


Also speaking on his local growth, Burna Boy stated that Nigerians only acknowledge him now because the rest of the world does.

“Nigerians love me a lot more now because they can see that the whole world likes me, too. They think I’m something special, but I’m not."


D explanation from d journalist & what burna said are two different things

Read his Post and get his point before condemning him

And let's be frank, burna boy only just recently started getting the attention of Nigerians
I have always loved Burna boy right from time, but can't deny the obvious fact that Nigerians underrated him in the past, just like they are doing now to Runtown.

From winning the BET awards for Best International Act and featuring in Beyonce's Lion King Album, Burna Boy says Nigerians love him now because the rest of the world does.

Talking about his album which will be released tomorrow and his music in an interview with Billboard, the Rivers State born singer said his plan is to take his music worldwide and also play in a stadium in China. But first, he’ll embark on a 17-date global tour of 1,000- to 3,000-capacity venues starting Aug. 9 in Toronto.

“This has always been my vision,” he says. “Not like I planned it, just that I knew I should stick to doing what I’m doing. It’s almost like climbing steps -- you keep going up.”

Also speaking on his local growth, Burna Boy stated that Nigerians only acknowledge him now because the rest of the world does.

“Nigerians love me a lot more now because they can see that the whole world likes me, too. They think I’m something special, but I’m not. I’m just a human whose skill is making music. Way I see it, everyone plays their own role in the world, and no role is more important than the other.”

On becoming one of the richest Nigerian artists, he said, “You are only as rich as where you come from, and Nigeria has a lot of poverty.”

This guy sounds truly intelligent. I'm not one given to reading stuff from Nigerian artists, but this guy is truly one very humble and diplomatic dude.

If your comment states otherwise, that's because you probably just went with the title of the post without reading through.
