Burna Boy says Nigerians underrate him

Burna Boy has stirred reactions from Nigerians after he lamented that many still do not believe he is on the same level as American rappers.

During an interview with Los Angeles Times, Burna Boy said many Nigerians underrate and disregard how far he has come because they can't see how a person who sounds like he does would be more significant than up-and-coming American rappers.

“They don’t understand it. They’ll say, ‘There’s no way someone who talks like me, can even be on the same level as an American artist," he said.
