Famous Nigerian musician Burna Boy has dropped a new track titled "Cheat On Me," adding to his discography. This release follows a recent statement he made regarding Afrobeat, sparking a lively debate within the Nigerian community.
The song conveys a distinct life message that is easily comprehensible and relatable to everyday life experiences. It is important to note that most of Burna Boy's songs have a distinct style.
In a recent Apple interview, Burna Boy made a statement about AfroBeat, claiming that it lacks substance but added that it creates a good time. Nevertheless, Burna Boy also emphasized that while Afrobeat offers a great time, but doesn't always mirror reality because life isn't always about having an amazing time.

The statement, however, sparked considerable contemplation, leaving some AfroBeat fans with questions.
Burna Boy's comments ignited a debate among some Nigerians who drew comparisons between his interviews and those of fellow Nigerian artists like Davido and Wizkid. They argued that artists such as Davido and Wizkid infuse AfroBeat with themes of love and incorporate more profound elements into their music while suggesting that Burna Boy's approach might divert Afrobeat in a direction that could potentially overshadow the efforts of other Nigerian artists striving for recognition in their songs and projects.
