Burna Boy, the Grammy award-winning artist, recently stirred discussions online by revealing the artists he credits for paving the way for him in the music industry.
During an Instagram Live session, Burna Boy highlighted 2baba, Timaya, D'banj, Larry Gaaga, and Wande Coal as the key veterans who significantly influenced his career.
He expressed deep gratitude particularly towards Timaya, acknowledging him as the person who demonstrated that achieving stardom was possible.
Burna Boy stated, “The only OGs who have impacted my life, number one, Timaya because he is the one who showed me that achieving stardom was possible. I’m going to respect him for the rest of my life.”
He also credited D'banj for his support, mentioning how D'banj paid for the 'Wan Da Mo' video, and emphasized his enduring respect for both Timaya and D'banj.
Burna Boy further mentioned Larry Gaaga for standing by him during tough times, solidifying his respect for these figures who played pivotal roles in his journey to success.
When you’re talking about OGs, as far as I’m concerned, those names are the only ones in addition to 2Face based on musicality and the fact that he did a feature with me when he didn’t have to back in the day. These are OGs to me. Any other person isn’t an OG to me. ID Cabasa, you can meet Olamide, and you can be an OG to him [laughs]. We’ve all been through stuff differently, and we all see life differently.
I can’t forget Wande Coal, too. At a point in time, we were so close.”
