GRAMMY award-winning act, Burna Boy, took his time to lecture a lady who accused him of using Africa's suffering to enrich himself.
The lady identified as Dera took to social media and noted that Burna Boy's strategy was painting a bad image about Africa, with no evidence of positivity, to gain massively.
The self-proclaimed 'Africa Giant' did not take it lightly and in a lengthy post took his time to lecture her.
He wrote: "First of all ain’t no ‘WE’ you live in the UK and probably come to Africa for holidays. You and anybody that thinks like you deserve all the worst in life and the afterlife. You think I need to sing about the truth of African suffering to gain? Dumb bullshit takes more away from me, my pocket, and my family to sing the truth like I have always done
"I would be way more comfortable and richer if I didn’t sing the truth about my society. I wasn’t the man I am or if I didn’t have so much interiority, I could have accepted the numerous millions of dollars I’ve needed and continued to be offered by African politicians.
"FYI, nobody can make music about girls, money, and bullshit better than me (I’ve proven this countless times) I just chose to speak my truth and the truth about Africa. So go and listen to one of the many great talents "Coming out of Africa" and skip Burna Boy if you can’t handle it."
"I’m from Africa! Me and my extended family live in Africa and it’s always on our minds that the rest of the things I say and do get bigger and I get risks suffering, and smiling!” He added.
