Why people often misunderstand me – Burna Boy explains
Nigerian music star, Damini Ogulu, popularly known as Burna Boy, has said he tends to be misunderstood by people.
According to the ‘Common Person’ hit maker, the reason people often misunderstand him is because he made a conscious decision not to let them know much about his personality.
Burna Boy made the statement while chatting with media outfit, Dazed in the Caribbean Island about his career, family, and new album.
Speaking on his recently released project, ‘Love, Damini’, he said that he tried using the album to allow people get closer to him.
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.
“I tried to use this album to allow people to get closer to me.”
When asked about his contribution to the October 2020 EndSARS protest that rocked Nigeria, the self acclaimed African Giant said he would never encourage any young Nigerian to ever start or join any movement like that where lives will be lost.
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.”
