truth be told, the songs no sweet

I'm only jamming to No fit vex for you.

That song is on another level

This album doesn't worth the hype, wizkid's, superstar album, fireboy's previous album and kizzdaniel's new era album is far better than this. Some people are not really vibing to the song, they're just hyping on social media cos of peer pressure.. Make i stop here before the senseless people starts quoting!

Like to party is still burna boy greatest jam.

I still prefer burna boy of aristocrat records all burna jam with leriq is a classic

You're a real fan bro.
I'm only jamming to No fit vex for you which was produced by leriq.

Leriq always deliver!

Most Naija listeners will never love this album just because is not their normal vibe music that's filled with high energy dance tune.
But those who love to listen to lyrics or messages in a music rather than the tune(beat) will testify that this album is epic. It can't be compare to the regular street album in Nigeria.
Music is more than the tune but more of the messages it carries. Messages that will bring about sober reflection, your hustle in life and the future itself. We naija like music that glorifies ladies, drugs, etc but if you are a lover of music get yourself this album and listen to all the messages and you will comprehend life the more.

NB: To win Grammy, your music must be in line with the international audience and not your locality.

9ja blood is running in your vein

nigeria become the african gaint by double triple and multiple population

and our boy want to make it as the gaint again with not just tall song but twice as tall.

Leave all this Media Hype. Shey d Album Dope like M2M Wande Coal or Superstar Wizkid

It wasn't made for you oga, I am sure you don't buy albums you just download them free online. Those people abroad who don't download for free are the target market. So you can keep your mushin to mohits to yourself.

Funny how can you even compare WizKid superstar album to this? Do you think this album is for kids in mushin or what?

his name should just be naija boy not burna boy

boring album

Don't mind them na overhype some people dey do

GeneralPula:
The album no too galant..

All the previous burna albums are way better..

From the negative comments up there about this album (Twice As Tall), you'd wonder less why our artists keep churning out kpangolo music with wide acceptance.

This album can be liking to classical music. It is for the matured minds. Sometimes one wonder why Kendrick Lamar keep winning the Grammy, but when you look at his lyrics, they are so deep from the average mind.

Exactly what Burna has done on this album. from the cover picture to the songs, intro and outro has a story to tell. #TwiceAsTall.

Sirjay001:
Burna boy dropped an album for Africans not specifically for Nigerians.

Y'all that are criticizing the album are used to Nigerian music. You have to widen your scope of music. Burna is out to touch the world.

God bless you, you nailed it. Don't mind all these local people, they want naira Marley kind of songs

The album.... Just there... Nothing special biko!

Why wasn't he nominated for a Grammy award when he was still with aristocrat? Which artists sticks to just one producer these days?

Till Una hear mafo, ijo soapy.... Nigerians will never be happy
The album is a classic and made for a world audience.

I started opening up to certain songs until recently.

Burna Boy got the art work and possibly the name right - as a sequel to the "African Giant" album but the truth is, the album failed to trump the previous. African Giant carries more weight than TAT.

I love the fact that he is slowly becoming a political voice and Ama Ata Aido's sampling in "Monsters You Made" is simply divine. I listened to the song time and time again with a level of ANGST. As an African, you won't listen to that song and feel the same except if the meaning flies above one's head.

You see "Bank on It", that song for me is the "Twice as Tall" album! I have played that song an unhealthy amount of times. I catch the ghetto/cultism/gangster references in the song but I can't deny the fact that the song is a beauty. "Bank on It" is my best song in the album.

After all the hype, I decided to listen to the album, and truth be told, I was really disappointed.

Burna is way way better than what that album says.

I guess you need a better Dre beat or better car that have a good sound system, as first you will think the album doesn't make sense but if you have a better sound system, you will know the album is spiritual, anyway I can borrow you a good sound system if you need one.

You my friend are very wise. Best comment so far. This nigeria audience is responsible for pushin our talented acts to do basic music. Good thing about Burna is that he cares less about their opinions. Man is a go getter. I am very impressed that an album this great was made by a Nigerian. For peeps saying it’s overhyped, just up your taste in music then you will come back to appreciate. Y’all just want to dance and twerk, nah this album isn’t for y’all

You sound very well informed about music and apparently you’ve got taste, I’m however wondering why despite all of that, you don’t agree that Twice as Tall is Burna’s best body of work yet. I’ll put it to you that it is. The issue an average Nigerian will have with it is how it has no typical ‘naija hit’.... but that was a quality body of work. I pinch myself to be sure I’m not dreaming anytime I listen to the album. Like yo! A Nigerian made this?
If you’re up for it, I’d analyze African giant album track by track vis-à-vis Twice as Tall album. I’m an unrepentant fan of Burna unlike you that started cozying up to his music recently. Cheers

A Giant’s Story: The ‘twice As Tall’ Album Review

A close look at the Twice As Tall album feature list, will give you a slight indication of what is to come.

But it doesn’t prepare you for the full impact.

Burna Boy proves with this amazing body of work that his self-professed title of African giant holds considerable promise, especially against a backdrop of a new crop of global audience.

It’s refreshing to see a musical work that is a proper album and not just a collection of songs pieced haphazardly together. The highly anticipated LP, ‘Twice As Tall’ is positioned for a global audience and that is much evident from the remarkable artiste features that elevates the music from the company of the usual Nigerians suspects to a more global collective, with guest appearances from Chris Martin, Stormzy and the legendary Naughty by Nature.

The work opens with the classic ‘Level Up (Twice as Tall)’ featuring the African legend, Youssou N’Dour who instantly pulls you in with a soul-stirring rendition that helps unpack Burna Boy’s narrative of pain.

The LP can be summarized as a compilation of Burna Boy’s Grammy aftermath story. Track after track, Burna Boy is not afraid to mouth his many failings and disappointments and the reaction of people to the hand dealt him in his career.

From ‘Level Up,’ ‘Alarm Clock’ to ‘Way Too Big,’ Burna’s mission to assert his musical dominance clearly comes through and he’s not subtle about his political propensity in ‘Monsters You Made’ and ‘Wetin Dey Sup.’

It’s not clear why ‘Wonderful’ is the lead single on this LP, with the array of songs available for the pickings, but with P.Diddy, executive producing the album he might have had something to do with the choice. Diddy’s voice clearly comes through in a few tracks, whether to imprint himself in the work or to add creative colour to the tracks, we are not mad at the result.

The familiar sounding, ‘Comma’ takes a shot at the irregularities of a 21st century woman looks and all. If Burna Boy is looking to acquire more female following, this is definitely not the way to do it.

‘23’ spotlights Burna Boy’s struggle with dealing with the negativity and two-faced reception he has gotten from music industry stakeholders. The starting line, ‘Music Make Me Feel I Be Jordan’ aptly summarizes the strange title, ‘23’ which celebrates the jersey number of basket ball’s finest, Michael Jordan.

‘Monsters You Made,’ with the smooth rock exterior by Chris Martin is an authentic protester’s anthem. Burna Boy raves at everything from the white man’s doctored education system to the rape of the Niger Delta region.

Burna Boy and Stormzy trade street stories in the track ‘Real Life’; stories about survival, good times and peace of mind and it’s a smooth, mid-tempo vibe that will definitely take you on a cruise. The LP ends nicely with ‘Bank On It,’ Burna’s attempt to consolidate his integrity and the choir-type chorus rendition at the end adds a colourful touch to the track.

If there’s anything missing in Burna Boy’s ‘Twice As Tall’ album, it’s a visible Nigerian creative input, because no Nigerian music artiste was featured anywhere in the body of work. Then again that’s probably because the work required only one.

I don't understand Nigerians.
How can you not like this album? It's a far departure from the shallow bumbum song most of the artistes churn out.

I can now confidently say Nigerians have a poor taste in music.

I heard like 3 songs and not impressed. I hope the album wasn’t rushed.

It’s one thing to have talent to sing and another to have the right songs or be versatile.

Must dey nominate an artist for grammy before you can say that artist is great. U funny oh.

If you have ears for good music you'll know burna boy was beast working with leriq his problem started when he left aristocrat records and started working with spellz ( he made some good songs with spellz) burnaboy of before is better than burnaboy of now.

When I knew burnaboy was back was with heavens gate. That jam na 10 over 10. But the few songs I've heard on twice as tall isn't d burnaboy I know
