Burna Boyโ€™s music comes with that perfect rhyme to enjoy the melodies of one of Nigeriaโ€™s best pop songwriters while enjoying the greatest artist to come out of Africa, Fela Kuti.

Everyone knows Burna Boyโ€™s grandfather, the great music critic, Benson Idonije, once managed Fela, and Fela has been a great influence on his career โ€” he got Felaโ€™s image sitting pretty on his debut album cover, L.I.F.E., and Fela tatted upon his body.

Fela Kutiโ€™s music has played a significant role in the development of Burna Boyโ€™s sound. Burnaโ€™s grandfather being the late legendโ€™s manager introduced him to Felaโ€™s discography at a very young age.
