Singer Burna Boy has strongly responded to ongoing comparisons between him and the late Afrobeat legend, Fela Anikulapo-Kuti. Burna Boy, known for his protest music and outspoken views, has faced criticism recently, especially following an incident where he reportedly detained fellow musician Speed Darlington for allegedly defaming him.
In reaction to the criticisms and the constant comparison with Fela, Burna Boy took to his Instagram story to clear the air. “All that Burna Boy and Fela talk needs to die now. I’m not Fela, I’m BIG7. I’m all about positivity, peace, and prosperity, but honestly, I’d rather kill you than die for you,” he wrote.
Burna Boy’s message emphasized that while he respects Fela’s legacy, he is his own person with different priorities and values.
