Burnaboy breaks silence after Davido calls him a “New Cat”
Award-winning Nigerian singer, Damini Ebunoluwa Ogulu, professionally known as Burna Boy, has recently responded to comments made by his colleague Davido, referring to him as a “new cat” in the music industry. Previously, Davido had stated that Burna Boy, despite being a Grammy Award winner, is relatively new in comparison to artists like Asake, Mayorkun, Rema, Fireboy, and others.
Davido further expressed his satisfaction in having played a role in propelling Afrobeats to achieve global recognition and praised the new generation of artists for their success.
This remark sparked a variety of reactions on social media. While some disagreed with Davido’s statement, others commended him, providing evidence that Burna Boy is indeed a recent addition to the music scene.
However, Burna Boy has broken his silence on the matter. Taking to his Instagram page, he shared photos from his successful show at the London stadium, where he was able to fill the 80,000-capacity venue. Burna Boy expressed his joy in being able to fulfill his dream of uniting people from diverse backgrounds, with London serving as a testament to its realization.
Burnaboy wrote; “Uniting people from all walks of life has always been my dream. “London, thank you for making it possible for me at my biggest show to date! Shout out to my family @theuglygram @santandave @popcaanmusic and Stormzy. We’re Leaving An Impact For Eternity. “Love, Damini.”
