Quit pop, Brymo tells Burna Boy

April 17, 2024

Controversial singer, Ọlawale Ọlọfọrọ, popularly known as Brymo, has thrown jabs at fellow artist Burna Boy, urging him to step down from the pop scene.

He advised the ‘African Giant’ crooner to redirect his attention and energies away from the pop genre, saying he should “take a cause and focus.”

According to the singer, Burna Boy has been yearning for his attention despite his international accolades because he is “on deity level” in the music industry.

The ‘Ara’ crooner added that he is willing to help Burna Boy but only if he can ask like “a man and respectfully.”

On his Instagram story, Brymo wrote: “@BurnaBoyGram Yo! Three things… 1. You need to leave the pop scene. You are seriously looking almost ugly and with a voice like mine that can’t sing to boot, take a cause and focus. You need to give the world the things you were deprived of.

“2. Am on deity level. Any wonder why you can’t resist the yearning for my attention? Not even your international renown is enough to make you look past me who does not have anything supposedly close to what you are purported to have, he continued.

“What do you want? I can help if you ask like a man and respectfully.”

Burna Boy had dissed the singer during a freestyle with band in October 2023 after he accused him of song theft

Brymo alleged that Burna Boy’s ‘City Boys’ and ‘I Told Them’ sampled the title track of his album, ‘Macabre’.
