“I Get It Now” — Burna Boy Admits to Misjudging Afrobeats, Issues Apology

Published

on


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.”

“It is not something we enjoy. People think we enjoy it, but we don’t. We are just doing it for the story most times. If I had my way, I won’t kiss anyone in a film… There was a day I kissed four different girls on set.”
