“I’m not a Nigerian artiste. I don’t make money from Nigeria” Burna Boy says
Afro-beat singer, Burna Boy has said he is not a Nigerian artist though he’s from Nigeria.
He made this known on Twitter while reacting to a discussion about his achievements as an international artist.
A Davido fan account – going by the username, A Better Time, gotten from Davido’s album – said of Burna during the discussion: “He was *just an average star back in Nigeria and Africa at large, more like an artist with prospects, unlike his peers who had to do it on their own from day one.”
A fan of Burna’s then defended the Grammy-award winner and Burna tweeted, telling his fan to ignore the “delusional fanbases.”
Burna wrote: “Bro. Don’t get worked up. It’s Nigerian Twitter with 2 delusional fanbases, trust me You are not talking to actual people if their handles look like that.”
