Drag Burna Boy for his petulance and I’ll agree.
Drag him for always throwing silly tantrums like a baby & I’ll endorse.
But you see talent, vocals & musical ability???? He’s one of the top three in Africa regardless of genre.

Call Burna arrogant, hate him if you want, but donβt deny the fact that he makes good music, Man went from Zulu to English and then Yoruba perfectly. An African giant I stan!!!
