Burna Boy getting love since his 'Outside' Album
Following the release of his latest album, Outside in January this year, Burna has enjoyed rave reviews and artistic appreciation for the quality of music that he constantly puts out.
The artist who on his day is arguably one of the most talented acts in the country has been his own enemy in the industry.
In 2015, he was involved in a brawl with Zimbabwean artist, Buffalo Souljah at a party in South Africa.
Then later in the same year, he posted a tweet threatening bloggers who write things about him, before getting himself caught in an altercation with a man at Lekki, Lagos.
Last year, he was constantly in the news for the wrong reasons, but since his controversy with singer, Mr 2kay in October 2017, Burna Boy has taken conscious steps to focus on the music and cast a new light on his brand.
Hence, this year, it has been progressive steps as recently, the release of Kanye West's latest studio album, Ye led to a spike in his streaming number for Ye, the standout song off the Outside album and on May 29, celebrated as Democracy day, Nigerians across social media called for his hit single, Ye to be adopted as the new national anthem of the country.
Even though, there are no possibilities of that happening anytime soon or in the future, it shows the amount of love and influence that he enjoys among music lovers.
