Grammy-winning Nigerian singer, Damini Ogulu, known globally as Burna Boy, has revealed that the “African Giant” persona has “died,” and he is no longer the same artist fans once knew.
In a candid post shared on the official Instagram page of his upcoming album, No Sign of Weakness, Burna Boy expressed that the old version of him was “killed” by Nigerians.
He wrote, “The ‘African Giant’ Burna Boy died. His own people killed him. Then ‘Big 7’ was born to protect what was left of ‘Burna Boy.’”
Burna Boy went on to explain that the new and old versions of himself are constantly in conflict. He further elaborated, “Burna Boy and Big 7 fight each other a lot because while Big 7 is only protecting the final and only existing piece of Burna Boy’s broken heart, the ‘African Giant’ still haunts Burna Boy.”
