Grammy-winning singer, Damini Ogulu, popularly known as Burna Boy, has claimed that the Afrobeat pioneer, Fela Kuti, is the only African artist greater than him.
He made the claim during a recent livestream with popular Australian streamer, Playboymax.
“He [Fala Kuti] is the king. He is the only one [African artist] who is greater than me. He is the only one,” Burna Boy boasted.
The ‘Last Last’ crooner’s bold claim elicited mixed reactions, with many saying it was overreaching.
While Burna Boy is currently one of the biggest artists in Africa, the hierarchy of the greatest African artists in history remains a debate.
