“90% of Afrobeat artists don’t have substance in their music” – Burna Boy

Grammy-award-winning artist Burna Boy says that most Afrobeat artists have no substance in the music they produce.

During an interview with Zane Lowe of Apple Music, Burna Boy stated that most Afrobeat artists have not had any life experiences so it makes their music empty.

 

He stated that he believes that music should be wrapped with life experience. He described the Afrobeat music genre as music full of excitement and entertainment with no life experiences.

Burna Boy described artists as people who have their own ups and downs in life and a person has their good days, bad days, and challenging times which envelopes the writing of music.
