Burna Boy has called himself the best musician in the music industry since the death of the music legend, Fela Anikulapo-Kuti.
He made this known through his Twitter page yesterday while lamenting that the industry has a very high level of hypocrisy.
He said ‘the same people that wish you the best to your face are the same people that hope and pray you to fail.
Recall Burna was nominated for Grammys award but lost to Angelique Kodjo
The African giant further explained that he is a man of his own as nobody in the music industry paved the way for him to where he is right now.
Burna on his Twitter page wrote: “I always knew I am THE BEST. Everyone you think is the best knows I’m the best since Fela Kuti.
“But Timaya told me something a long time ago that made me not care about being the best. “The World can do without the Best” the world will still spin regardless.
“The same people that wish you the best to your face are the same people that hope and pray you Fail so that they can feel better about themselves. That’s just Life.
“That’s why complements mean nothing to me because hate, Jealousy are sugar coated by them
“NOBODY paved shit for me. Everybody dey find them own. I have been out here if you knew the way they made us look weak by begging and paying the western world to like us you will see that no table was set and I’m the one that brought you the Respect you currently enjoy.”
