However, some fans couldn’t resist jokingly referencing Burna Boy’s last performance in Kenya at the 2019 NRG Wave Festival, which had left many fans disappointed due to his late arrival.
Back then, Burna Boy took the stage in the early hours of the morning, leading one of his fans to write:
“We ni mkora tutalipa ukishaanza kuimba.” (You’re a trickster. We’ll pay once you start singing.)
Despite this playful banter, Burna Boy remains one of Africa’s most celebrated and influential artists.
His exceptional talent has earned him numerous accolades, including Best International Act at the 2023 BET Awards and Best Global Music Album at the 2021 Grammys.
Renowned for his electrifying performances, Burna Boy's global success and distinctive Afro-fusion sound continue to captivate audiences worldwide. His return to Kenya in 2025 is set to solidify his place as a major musical icon.
The upcoming concert promises to be an unforgettable event, and Kenyan fans are eagerly anticipating the chance to experience his high-energy performance live.
