The ‘African Giant’ Burna Boy Is Dead, His Own People Killed Him” — Singer Sparks Online Buzz
Grammy-winning Nigerian artist, Damini Ogulu, better known as Burna Boy, has stirred fresh conversations online after symbolically declaring the death of his former self — the ‘African Giant.’
In a powerful and introspective message posted on the official Instagram account of his forthcoming album No Sign of Weakness, the Afro-fusion star said the original version of Burna Boy is no more — and Nigerians, he claims, are responsible for his demise.
“The ‘African Giant’ Burna Boy died. His own people killed him,” the artist wrote in an emotional passage. “Then ‘Big 7’ was born to protect what was left of Burna Boy.”
The statement paints a picture of internal conflict between his past and present identities. According to Burna Boy, while ‘Big 7’ serves as a guardian of his wounded self, the ghost of the ‘African Giant’ continues to haunt him.
“Burna Boy and Big 7 fight each other a lot because while Big 7 is only protecting the final and only existing piece of Burna Boy’s broken heart, the ‘African Giant’ still haunts Burna Boy,” he added.
Fans are already speculating that this new persona — ‘Big 7’ — may signal a more hardened, introspective phase in the singer’s musical journey. The upcoming album, now steeped in mystery and emotional symbolism, is expected to further unpack this evolution.
