Nigerian Grammy Winner, Burna Boy is no stranger to criticism over his type of music but recently he was forced to react after a lady slammed him using his music to give Africa a bad name and gain from it.

According to the lady by the username, @BigDera on Twitter, Burna Boy is fond of making it look like Africa is suffering and a jungle in his songs and music videos for his own profit.

The lady claims that this is an insult to Africans and that the Grammy singer should stop making it look like Africans live in jungles and in forests.

She stated that even Fela, who is his musical inspiration didn’t make Africans look like animals to talk about oppressors in his music. She also took offence to Burna saying that Wizkid sings about b*tches and he sings about real life.

Dera’s tweet was posted by Instagram blogger, Bwetv and Burna Boy who came across the post took to the comment section to reply to her.

In his lengthy reply, he fired back at Big Dera saying that she might be among those set of people who live abroad and come back for holiday and think they know better Africa and what he should sing about.

According to him, he doesn’t gain anything by singing about the oppression being faced by Africans as it takes more from him and his pockets to sing about the truth like he has always done.
