Nigerian TV presenter, Lerin Nicodemus, has described Grammy-winning singer, Damini Ogulu popularly known as Burna Boy, as the most uninspiring artiste in the country.
She made this comment while reacting to the singer’s controversial assertion that Afrobeats music lack substance.
According to Lerin, Burna is the biggest fraud for adopting Afrobeats in order to succeed on the global stage, only for him to denounce the genre after he achieved success.
The YouTuber said that the musician was a hypocrite for emulating Fela while creating his pan-African advocacy but failing to put it into practice whenever there is social unrest in Nigeria or elsewhere in Africa.
She accused him of belittling people at every opportunity he gets, in comparison with his counterparts, Wizkid and Davido, who promote Afrobeats and uplift upcoming artistes.
“Burna Boy is the biggest fraud and most uninspiring artiste in nigeria, his entire brand is built on Fela’s Pan Africanism but when there is a social activity, he either keeps quiet or mocks the people,” she said in a part.
