In anticipation of Chris Brown’s sold-out show at FNB Stadium, South Africans mock Burna Boy in a playful way.
Nigerian superstar Burna Boy is once again trending on social media, but this time he’s the subject of playful jabs from South Africans ahead of Chris Brown’s much-anticipated concert at FNB Stadium this December.
Back in 2023, Burna Boy, known as the “African Giant,” was forced to cancel his planned South African concert due to disappointing ticket sales and logistical challenges.
Fast forward to Chris Brown’s upcoming Johannesburg performance, and the atmosphere couldn’t be more different.
Social media is buzzing with excitement as South Africans eagerly await the return of the American R&B sensation, with many predicting a sold-out show at the iconic FNB Stadium.

One fan joked, “Chris Brown will always sell out, no matter where he goes. This isn’t Burna Boy we’re talking about,” while others continued to poke fun at Burna’s previous difficulties in the country.
