Burna Boy, a Nigerian musician, songwriter, and record producer, gained notoriety on social media after he asserted that there are only two people who are as good as the “big 3” and that he is the other.
The artist abruptly paused to speak to his fans after being heard singing one of his new songs during a concert.
He could be heard saying, “Next time anybody tells you about anything called the ‘big 3’, tell them there’s only the ‘big 2’ and then, there’s Burna Boy.”
Although it’s unclear to whom the singer was referring when he said “the big two,” many have speculated that he meant Wizkid and Davido, and that since Burna Boy isn’t in the same league as them or in their category, there are just the big two and Burna Boy.
However, his message has gained attention on social media, with many people sharing their thoughts on the post’s comment page.

@AbiolaAbdul: “His whole existence has been about the competition. He has touched the global level yet still feels insecure or defeated. I sympathise with him.”
@Tinarerelaw1234: “He has told people before and people can clearly see he’s in his own league but I’m glad he gave this message 😌🤣🔥❤️❤️❤️. Dats my bestfriend.”
@diamonddemola: “He’s not even big two, he’s third force! Let him continue to denigrate his people for validations, we still love Wizzy and David more than him. It’s not just about good music, it’s also about impact and how you are perceived at home. Burna too dey find enemies where there’s none.”
