Omah Lay credits Burna Boy with teaching him songwriting
Stanley Omah Didia, better known as Omah Lay, has said that Burna Boy is at the highest level when it comes to songwriting.
He mentioned this during an interview with Motolani and Kemi Smallz on Pulse One On One, stating that he learned from the ‘Common Person‘ crooner.
Omah Lay claims that when he first stayed in Port Harcourt, he has been listening to Burna Boy, and that because of the Grammy winner’s superior pen game, no one else in the business can compare.
Additionally, he talked about the moment when he proclaimed himself to be the best songwriter, admitting that, before he tweeted his thoughts, he almost had indicated that Burna Boy was his closest competitor.
Hahaha! Nobody comes close to me with the pen”, he had tweeted.
But he later texted the self-acclaimed African Giant not to take his tweet seriously.
