“Getting a Nigerian artist to the Grammy Awards twice is no joke.
It’s a huge deal. Whether you like it or not, when we talk about international recognition in Nigerian music, Burna Boy has been leading that front. He was ahead before a lot of people.
People like to argue about the ‘Top 3’ or ‘Big 3’, but it’s not just that anymore. We now have a ‘Big 4’ — and Burna Boy is definitely part of it. When it comes to global recognition, you cannot deny his impact.
If you think Burna Boy hasn’t made a mark, just look at his shows in America — full stadiums.
Many artists can’t even fill a stadium in the U.S., but Burna can. And he’s Nigerian. We should all be proud of that.
Yet some Nigerians are busy creating narratives to bring him down. Why try to diminish the success of someone who is giving Nigeria visibility on the global stage?
Burna Boy, alongside artists like Davido, is opening doors for the entire Afrobeats movement. They’re putting in the work, making sacrifices, and building opportunities for other artists.
Because of them, more people around the world are listening to Afrobeats — on top of the foundation laid by legends like Fela Kuti. This new generation is pushing the genre forward, and their success is creating doors for others.
So instead of tearing them down, we should support them.
Think about your own future — Nigerians should not celebrate the downfall of their own people.
Burna Boy is making Nigeria proud, promoting Afrobeats globally, and setting the stage for countless other artists. We need to recognize that and be grateful.”
