Burna called out his colleagues for being pretentious and claims he’s the best Nigerian artist since Fela Anikulapo-Kuti
On February 12, 2020, Nigerian superstar came for Nigerian artists on his Twitter account. Amongst other things, he claimed that Nigerian artists were pretentious
Burna Boy – I always knew I was and I am THE BEST. Everyone you think is the best KNOWS I’m BEST since Fela Kuti. But @timayatimaya told me something a long time ago that made me not care about being the best. “The World can do without the Best” the world will still spin regardless.
In a two-tweet tirade, he wrote, “The same people that wish you the best to your face are the same people that hope and pray you Fail so that they can feel better about themselves. That’s just Life. That’s why complements mean nothing to me cuz hate, Jealousy and “it shoul have been me” are sugar coated by them.
