I neva hear d songs.. Never liked any of his songs as 'classics'..... my own concern na how d original "Prince" of afrobeat go dey feel cheesy

Instead of to reinvent him style, seun still dey sing fela style of afrobeat, & him dey expect to blow cheesy

Wow! Are you sure?
I beg to disagree.

We heard "Make I tell dem the Koko" and "Mo bo lowo won" before "You are my African queen".

That's what I think.
Are you for real?
African Queen came out in 2004 while D'Banj's Tongolo was 2006

Nothing special about the album, just too much hyping.



Kudos to his team

overrated crap
You lack taste for good music... I'm sorry.

Guard your heart, your ears and your eyes because through them, anything gets to yur soul. Stop listening to crap from Naira Marley and zlatan that will soon go into Oblivion... Forgotten like they never existed.

Small boy.

Dont get it twisted...I love Burna ! But the album is not progressive. Bros needs to listen to his audience or it could be over soon. Fans are fickle and will move on. WIZ Keeps reinventing with every album. Mr Burns needs to do the same

Obviously you don't know the meaning of sequel. Or perhaps still you haven't listened to any of the songs from the album.

Or you seem to know too much than Don jazzy or even 2Baba and The same WIZ who all praised the album.

Or even Diddy who is so certain it the "album of the year"

No bad blood. Just learn the meaning of "sequel" first. Then I will argue with you but now- I reserve my strength.

what else do you expect from diddy? Abi diddy is not the executive producer for the album? You want him to destroy his handiwork? What else do expect from don jazzy , 2 baba ? You want them pull down their fellow musician? You want them to say the album is wack?

True. Same happens everywhere. Even if we say the album is entirely not good enough which I still doubt, we can say the same for many other albums...
from different Nigerian artists... But tbh , you and I know that not every song from the playlist would be a favorite.

Personally, I picked : Monsters You Made ( reasons best known to me... Gives me this nostalgic feeling of action and crime thrillers ... Yeah .. but that's by the way.) as a favorite. I even believe it will be adopted as a hit movie's soundtrack soon enough... It would be fun to see someone like Chris Hemsworth( Don't know if that's the correct spelling. You know him as Thor from the Marvel Cinematic Universe) star in movie like Extraction 2. A gun battle scene maybe escape scene involving shootouts and Burna's “ Monsters you made” playing in the background. Mehn... Imagine that... Such a great feeling I swear.

Others from the album I enjoyed are : 23, Time Flies and Bank on It.

So pick yours. You simply can't love everything.

But saying the album is wack. Nah! bro! you lack taste for good music... Or you just simply a fellow artist hating for no reason. ( Even Writers do it too- we get jealous sometimes when our competition surpass what we benchmarked for them)

Just get over it. Live life. Celebrate others and one day your turn will come. Peace.

Impressed by the naughty by nature feature. Burna boy just keeps on impressing me with his musical choices. It's clear he's got a vast influence as far as music is concerned cool
