Burna Boy Left Fans Hanging At Netherlands Concert

Nigerian singer Burna Boy has called for an end to comparisons between himself and the late Afrobeat legend and activist, Fela Anikulapo-Kuti.

The Grammy-winning artist, often likened to Fela due to his protest-themed music, took to his Instastory to express his frustrations, asserting his individuality and a distinct identity.

“Also all that Burna Boy and Fela talk needs to die now. I’m not Fela, I’m BIG7. I’m all about positivity, peace, and prosperity, but honestly I’d rather kill you than d!e for you,” Burna Boy wrote.

The statement comes amidst criticism surrounding his recent actions involving fellow artist Speed Darlington, who was reportedly detained by Burna Boy over allegations of defamation. This incident has sparked debates about Burna Boy’s stance on freedom of expression, a principle strongly upheld by Fela during his lifetime.

Burna Boy’s declaration emphasizes his commitment to charting his own path, distinct from that of the late Afrobeat pioneer. While he acknowledges his message of “positivity, peace, and prosperity,” his blunt remarks have reignited discussions about his place in Nigeria’s music and cultural landscape.

Fans and critics alike continue to dissect his comments, with many reflecting on the influence and legacy of both artists in shaping contemporary Afrobeat and social commentary through music.
