“I Get It Now” — Burna Boy Admits to Misjudging Afrobeats, Issues Apology
Popular Nigerian singer, Burna Boy, explains why he has been distancing himself from the Afrobeats genre.
In a recent interview, the singer stated that he was still unsure about how the genre of music worked.
“At the time, I didn’t understand that we needed an umbrella for the genre—for the music to get recognition like R&B and Hip-Hop. I didn’t come to terms with it until I started seeing the reactions and the division it was causing, so I got the point of the Afrobeats tag.
“If I had understood then, I would have gone about it differently. Why would I want to destroy what I’m building?
“I didn’t realise the Afrobeats tag is needed to make it global, because there wouldn’t be any R&B, Hip-Hop, or any of these popular genres if their beginnings had a lot of separation. So now, I totally get it and apologise for the confusion.”
Popular Nigerian streamer, Carter Efe, has expressed excitement after singer Davido gifted him ₦20 million.
It will be recalled that the singer recently appeared on Carter Efe’s show, where his appearance alone broke records. Following the show, Davido promised to gift the streamer ₦20 million—a promise he later fulfilled.
Carter Efe made the announcement on social media, confirming that the money had been received. “Yeeeee Davido 20 million naira, I don die,” he wrote.
Afrobeats singers and celebrity couple, Simi and Adekunle Gold, have announced that they are expecting their second child.
The news was revealed in a music video by Adekunle Gold, which featured his family. The couple later took to social media to share the video, sparking excitement among fans and loved ones, who flooded the comment section with congratulatory messages.
