Burna Boy has established a new record for the highest-grossing tour by an African artist in Canada
Burna Boy has achieved another remarkable milestone, emerging as the top-grossing African artist in Canada. As revealed by Touring Data on June 13, 2024, his ‘I Told Them’ tour garnered $5.7 million from 69,219 tickets across 6 concerts, setting a new African record. This achievement adds to his previous accolades, such as headlining the Scotia Bank Arena in February 2024, marking the first time an African artist has done so.

His success in 2024 has continued with the remix of Titom & Yuppe’s ‘Twala Bam,’ which became the first South African lead song to top the TurnTable Top 100 chart.
