Burna Boy: The road to a Grammy for ‘Twice As Tall’
In July 2019, Burna Boy flew into Lagos for a listening party. The subject was African Giant, his seventh studio project. He was all smiles, calm and collected. Whenever he smiled, it was full and with teeth.
The smiles were of contentment and genuine happiness. Dressed in all-black, he was even joined by his grandmother. Word was that a night before, he had just performed a stop on his African Giant Tour.
He was not only winning professionally, his personal life was popping – his girlfriend is British rapper,
Stefflon Don. She wasn’t there on the night, but her spirit hovered above the room, whispering his lovely tunes.
