Burna Boy’s latest album, ‘I Told Them,‘ released in 2023, has achieved a remarkable milestone by surpassing 200 million streams on Spotify.
Despite this achievement, Burna found himself in the media spotlight due to a recent Twitter outburst where he offered money to Nigerian bloggers in exchange for them refraining from reporting about him.
In addition, the acclaimed African artist faced disappointment when he lost the Best Afrobeats category at the now-cancelled MTV EMA Awards. These recent developments have kept Burna Boy in the public eye, showcasing both his successes and moments of controversy.
