I’m misunderstood and the reason is that I have never really given anyone a chance to know who I am – Burna Boy

Nigerian superstar Burna Boy has explained why he tends to get misunderstood by many.

Speaking in an interview with international media outlet Dazed on a visit to the Caribbean Island, Burna Boy said he keeps getting misunderstood by many because he chose not to let people know much about his personality.

He said;

“I tend to be misunderstood and the reason is that I have never really given anyone a chance to know who I am, and that’s what I tried to do.” 

Burna also said that he tried using his recent album Love, Damini to allow people get closer to him.

He said;

“I tried to use this album to allow people to get closer to me.” 

On the #EndSARS protest, Burna said;

“My thoughts don’t matter [on SARS]. I’m not going to encourage young people to lose their lives any more. When something is ready to happen, it will happen. With understanding comes readiness for action.”
