The Epic Failure!!that Is Burna Boy. by Weedkhalifa(f): 4:41pm On Apr 09, 2015 |
If you had asked me 6 weeks ago which Artiste I was going to write on, it would have been about how bad a performer Naeto C is and why he should give up being a performing artiste but somehow, I think Burna Boy has trumped all this with what I call an Epic Failure at been an Artiste. I watched Burna Boy perform for a smallish crowd at Industry night like 4 months ago and I thought to myself ‘Dis guy dey feel ‘im sef die’ He hoarded the microphone even though he was just a guest on the stage and at a point the owner of the night had to just ingest himself into the performance ‘make e no be like say’. I then decided that I wanted to see him perform live again because you see, I am a huge fan of Burna Boy and live music in general. Infact I did an instagram post on 5 things I like about Burna Boy like 8 months (FYI I do not know him personally on any level) So when Gidi Cultural Fest advertised that Burna Boy was in their line up I was pretty excited. I waited from 9PM till 4:30AM for the moment he would arrive on stage and ‘Ol Boy did he arrive….Burna arrived in a construction type truck which was amazing and then……it all went down hill from there First there was no introduction from him which was not bad or even noticeable considering a great number of people in the crowd were tired from the whole event proper, I then noticed that Burna did not really seem to care if the crowd were feeling him, of course he made sure we shouted to the parts of the songs that are most noticeable but asides that, Burna was having fun on the stage sometimes with his dancers without any kind of connection to the crowd. The place could have been empty and Burna would have performed the same way he did. The set wasn’t impressive as the mixes were skipped into each other without much thought, Burna was singing on his songs which already had vocals (and he was off key half of the time), at a point he couldn’t even sing along to a particular song and he really just let the song do its thing and finally without saying a word and without the song ending, Burna just left the stage like someone had insulted his family lineage. Like who comes on stage and leaves abruptly without notice, haba did we annoy you? Abi we didn’t come on time? You must understand that Burna Boy was one of the Major headlines for the event so a good number of people had waited it out to hear and see him perform and in my opinion that was the worst performance of ALL time. My advice for the young cats who got on stage that night is simple YOUR FANS MAKE YOU (‘make’ been used in continuos present because they can also break you, its an ongoing process) No apologies but please try to make brilliant music and have no one listen to it, you will simply be a studio rat without a penny to your name. Burna please grow up, you are talented but you cannot eat talent, people must key into your talent and for it to be sustainable they must key into it for a very long time (unless you are interested in flash in the pan then you are on course) Being an Artiste transcends just coming on stage and giving us back the same songs which we already have on CD, being a performing Artiste is about so much more.

hummerwise:anyone who KNOWS music, knows that based on bocals alone and style, Burna would get an International recording contract before either of Davido and Wizkid. Don't let naija mediocrity fool you, Burna has better songs than those 2 guys.... And the OP should know that Davido IMO is a far worse performer than Burna. Everytime that dude gets on stage, he's a train wreck waiting to happen. All he does is jump around the stage like a frog on drugs and he doesn'y even have the decency to PRETEND he's singing along to the track. So if you're going to talk about shitty performers, then by all means, Davido should be top on the list 2 Likes |

hatux:Bros I no sabi music, oya teach me safarigirl:Beginning to sense tribal sentiments in ur posts... Pls don't quote me again, you both are just 4king rejected retards. I don't do tribal argument, yu both should look for ur class to chat wif. Ur 4king booooooooooring me |
Re: The Epic Failure!!that Is Burna Boy. by safarigirl(f): 10:25pm On Apr 09, 2015 |
hummerwise:are you an eediot? Scratch that, you're obviously one. And if you sense any tribal sentiments then it must be because your view that Davido and Wizkid are better is based solely on tribal sentiments. We all know how guilty conscience pushes people to assume everyone has the same sentiments as they do. Davido is a sucky performer and Burna is a better artiste vocally and lyrically than Wiz and Davido and anyone who thinks contrary to that has either been listening to too much junk music or is just bigoted. |
