According to Burna Boy, old rules of dealing with one's enemies or oppositions no longer apply.

The music star stated that, in his view, everybody was now a civilian, and people now have to get sued because there’s no more ‘sliding’.

In his words:

“The streets ain’t what it used to be. The old rules no longer apply. The way I see it, everybody is a civilian now. No more sliding, just sue your opps to court and take the money.”
