Burna Boy doesn’t want to be part of Afrobeats’ Big 3 conversation: See video
The African Giant said what he said.

Continuing his campaign to separate himself from the pack and the new musical genre popularised in West Africa, Burna Boy took to the stage at a recent show to state the following: “Next time anyone tells you anything about the Big 3 tell them there’s a Big 2 and then there’s Burna Boy.” Who are the Big 2 in this case? It would be his fellow Nigerian global superstars Wizkid and Davido. Abeg, let’s give Burna Boy what he wants so we can all be in peace. The Port Harcourt-born global superstar has worked hard and collaborated with fellow pop stars from all over the world. Should Burna Boy not see himself as such and want to be seen as one of the greatest artists ever (genre aside) to live and perform, let him be. He deserves it. He works hard.
