Grammy-award-winning singer, Damini Ebunoluwa Ogulu better known by his stage as Burna Boy, has disclosed that he gave his colleagues, Davido, Wizkid and others seven years to start ahead of him.
The popular singer revealed this in a recent interview.
The songwriter who rose to stardom in 2012 after releasing “Like to Party”, the lead single from his debut studio album L.I.F.E., further said why he gave them seven was because he was not allowed to leave his continent to the United Kingdom.
Burna Boy added that as soon as he got back to the UK in 2016, he told his colleagues in the industry that it was over for them.
He said, “I gave everyone in the industry seven years ahead to start because I was not allowed to step out of my continent to the UK but as soon as I got back in 2016, I said it is over for you all.”
