He said, “Thank you very much. I appreciate you. Ehen, now that’s it. You’ve to fight for your right.” When one of the presenters suggested that he already had the achievement and didn’t need to fight, Burna Boy responded, “No. You know, we have to fight for our rights.”

He has been selling out major concerts and solidifying his status as the “Afrobeat Ambassador.” His global appeal and acceptance have been evident in the success of his shows and the recognition he has received.
This latest accomplishment further cements Burna Boy’s position as one of Africa’s most successful and influential music artists.
