Brymo claims he’s a better artist than Burna Boy
Nigerian artist Ọlawale Ọlọfọrọ, famously known as Brymo, has stirred controversy by claiming that his colleague, Burna Boy, does not meet his musical standards.
Brymo made this assertion during an appearance on Curiosity Made Me Ask, hosted by skit maker Bae U Barbie. He responded to Burna Boy’s diss freestyle, where Burna Boy suggested that Brymo had “fallen off.”
This statement adds fuel to the ongoing debate about artistic merit and musical prowess within the Nigerian music industry. Brymo’s candid remarks highlight the diversity of opinions and rivalries that exist among artists, contributing to the vibrant and dynamic landscape of Nigerian music.
“Is it [the diss freestyle] not Burna Boy lyrics? But he would like to know that nothing in this world would put his name in my song. He no reach my standard,” the singer said.
Brymo also said that he is the “finest vocalist” in Africa.
“I’m not proud enough. I’m probably the finest vocalist on the continent. Better than anybody. I’m not thinking. I know this,” he said.
“And yeah, even Twitter guys can’t disagree with him despite the hate. You can win an Award, but that doesn’t mean you’re the best man for that award.”

Recall, In a QnA session on Curiosity Made Me Ask with social media personality, Adebayo Ridwan Abidemi @isbae_u, shared on Instagram, Brymo was asked if he would rather sign with Davido, Wizkid or Burna Boy, to which he responded ‘Don’t worry I will just go to hell. They need recording deals.”
Brymo also said unlike Burna Boy who included his name in his lyrics where he said “Hustle make you no fall off like Brymo“, he would not be reciprocating the favour
