In relation to Burna Boy’s ingenuity and astronomical rise, American comedian and author, Steve Harvey said it is not true that the Nigerian superstar stole elements of the American music genre as being propagated by fans from rival camps.
He firmly stated that it is the West, particularly America, that draws inspiration from African beats, rhythm, and soul, which are masterfully crafted by Burna Boy and other African artists.Harvey made this enlightening statement during his appearance as a panelist on a television program, emphasizing the unity between Africans and Black America
The comedian said; “They talk about ‘Burna Boy stole this’, no we stole from Burna Boy. Them Africans is us. Africans are the beats, soul, rhythm, and hard work. We get our courage from them. When you see them people, they look just like your family.”
