GRAMMY Award winner and Nigerian singer, Damini Ogulu, aka Burna Boy, has revealed the idea behind his hot song “City Boy” off his album “I Told Them”.
Speaking in a recent interview with Kiss FM London, United Kingdom, Burna Boy revealed that the term “city boy” meant making one's self a priority in a relationship with the female folk.
Burna Boy said, “City Boy is every guy that puts himself first. I mean about relationships between us and females. It’s not about putting yourself first in the grand scheme of things.
“Me being a city boy, right? If I say you know what? I’m going take everyone here shopping right now. We all go, and you all get what you want. Why did I do that? I did that simply because it was some fly sh*t to do. And I feel fly about it. You get me? That’s City Boy’s feeling. It wasn’t about you. It was really about me doing some fly sh*t.
“Women think the opposite of what things really are most of the time. If it was a city girl, she would tell you the opposite. She wouldn’t get the logic. She would feel like, Oh… After you guys have gone shopping, she might feel like you are finessed. That’s a city girl.”
Currently, the “I Told Them" album sits third in Apple Music's top Nigerian album, while “City Boy” sits fifth in the top songs in Nigeria.
