Beckysexy:
He's a good artist no doubt but he is not mature.

foreshore:


This statement is the beginning of his fall. He didn't need to say the stupid things he said.

Mykel51:


You can't tell me about Burna ... Like to Party, Tonight were hits in the country.... All eyes on me is the biggest SA Naija collaboration and the most awarded in African history...


Fela has children copying his style, why are they not as big as Burna ??

It's the Wild West...you get what you work for...

jimyjames:





Burna boy got no where with his original style of music, till he changed his style and started sampling fela, sunny ade, featuring Nigerian artist like 2face , wizkid, timaya etc that was when he became known in the industry


I still repeat my point Nigerian musicians who came before burna laid the foundation both home and abroad he only built on it, he only came at the right time after other musicians before him worked to get Nigerian music recognized internationally

He worked hard for it, I'm not disputing that fact, but fact still remains, he only built on the foundation that was laid by those who came before him
Nigerian musicians were already winning international awards before he came, to proof Nigerian music already gained international recognition, burna came from behind to win the biggest of them

Mykel51:



Burna is the First and the only Nigerian in history to have a debut album chart on the Billboard in 2013.

By 2015, he became the first Nigerian to sign an international deal with Universal Music...

You are saying nonsense... Btw the feature with 2face and Wiz was in 2013 on his debut album.

Your problem is ignorance. Burna worked his way to the top from scratch. He was blackballed in Nigeria. Restricted from performing in the UK till 2016.

You don't know Jack about him. Nobody paved nothing for him ❗

jimyjames:

false information, I repeat those that came before burna laid the foundation he only built on it, simple

ikllbrokehoes:
Those unfortunate people that prayed he shouldn't win must have been disappointed, burna deserves whatever he has now, because he worked hard for it without anyone's support, hate him or not he won't stop thriving.

Angelfrost:
I sense we will never hear the last of this Grammy win... Guy, move on already!

OBALOLA55:


WHEN THIS BOY GO GET SENSE

Reex12:
burnaboy pride go increase×100

I dnt hear wizkid making noise o

Myself2:
Really ?

How many people even knew he was nominated for a grammy to have devoted time to pray against his winning ?

This dude better not go all out.sounding proud and pompous, there are people that have won up to 10 Grammies and they never talked this way

HBB1:


Burna has made better songs in the past, but what happened?

He has gotten better management then this happens.

All the collabos and American TV interviews were all priming him for this

So ogbeni should not start mouthing off as if na him do everything.

African Giant was a better piece than Twice as Tall, so...

MichaelSokoto:
dis one don start muumuu talk!
Plenty negativity & poverty mind!
Only u know ppl dat don't luv u.

Nigga can never be humble like Tubaba

Emilokoiyawon:
E don start...cho cho cho...nobody wins grammy on their own...how is that even possible?

And if its talent dis guy no even reach KizzDaniel, Tekno or Flavor Nbania. So keep quite mumu.

leo22:
No sir, you didn't do it on your OWN!
You have a whole generation of artists, producers, promoters, DJs, managers etc to thank.

Big shout out to Junior and pretty, Alex o, mike okri, De remedies, plantation bois, majek fashek, styl plus, tribes records, storm records, dove records, Kennis music and a lot more for paving the way for kids like burna boy and co.

Emilokoiyawon:


And don't forget Fela, whose music he basically copied, word for word, to get to the top. The guy is madt.

kayjay69:
This guy needs to shut the fc_uk up and move on abeg.
I salute his achievement but this braggado talk is just childish. You are not the only one to ever win a grammy, you may be the first Nigerian but there will be many. No idea is original, there's nothing new under the sun.

His winning a grammy this year is not only as a result of his hardwork, it is as a result of the foundation that has been laid out over the years, dating back to previous other Nigerian artistes.

One tree never makes a forest, Burnaboy needs to fall back and enjoy his time in the limelight while he he is here but he should also remember that nothing in this world lasts forever.

JustCurious:


Stupid? It’s your perspective, bro.

The truth is that, the journey to the top would be easier if we have people who totally believe in us and support us.

In a system like ours, where “who you know determines your lot ” then, you don’t expect someone who struggled to get things done for himself by himself to have a different narration.

If you’ve ever been rejected several times with no assurance of glimpse of light at the end of the tunnel, perhaps, you’d understand his viewpoint, better.

Amidst rejection and unfavorable atmosphere, it takes faith in God, perseverance, strong willed, doggedness to stay afloat.

I guess he had a very rough beginning, however, he never gave up on himself.

NwaIgboBoy:
Heaven is our best reward not grammy!!!!!

candygist:


One of the unfortunate people.

candygist:


One of the unfortunate people that prayed for him not to win.

candygist:


Your space for hell be like Allen Avenue.

Mykel51:


False Information, I repeat nobody laid nothing for Burna. Tell them to go and lay foundation for Dammy Krane or Sean Tizzle

He worked hard to get here

candygist:


Did wizkid win Grammy ? Please show us wizkid's own.

jimyjames:



Sean tizzle dammy krane or whoever they are, they are not the only failed musicians, many many musicians in the same category failed.
Burna boy, wizkid davido tekno tiwa savage patoranking run Town kiss Daniel etc succeeded

Mykel51:


They succeeded because of Grace and Talent...
