Fans compare Burna Boy's Last Last to Kizz Daniel's Buga

Nigerian singers Burna Boy and Kizz Daniel trended on social media after their fans compared their hit songs Last Last and Buga, respectively.

While some fans supported Burna Boy, others pointed out that the singer's song Last Last went popular because of his reputation on the international scene, adding that without that, it was nothing compared to Kizz Daniel's Buga.

bowiii said:

"Okay... Let's the views within the time frame speak. Its easier for Burna to make Billboard than Kizz, because as an artist, Burna is bigger and more recognised globally, but when it comes to Buga and Last Last... BUGA head and shoulders above."
