“You wey dey sing Yoruba proverb music” – Burna Boy fires back at Brymo

Self-proclaimed African Giant, Damini Ogulu, professionally known as Burna Boy has responded to the condescending comments that his colleague, Olawale “Brymo” Oloforo made towards him.

Brymo who appeared as a guest in the latest episode of content creator, Bae U’s YouTube series, ‘Curiosity Made Me Ask’, proudly proclaimed that Burna Boy is not up to his standard musically.

In his words,

“Is it [the diss freestyle] not Burna Boy lyrics? But he would like to know that nothing in this world would put his name in my song. He no reach my standard”.

“I’m not proud enough. I’m probably the finest vocalist on the continent. Better than anybody. I’m not thinking. I know this”.

Responding to this, Burnaboy knocked him for using Yoruba music proverb to sing.

Calling himself a King, Burna noted how people say anything just to get at him.

“At this point they do and say anything to get at the KING.

Werey dey sing Yoruba proverb music for us.

When K1 and Saheed Osupa dem still dey carry us trabaye”, Burnaboy said

Recall that Burna Boy and Brymo had a public feud sometime back, after Brymo accused Burna of song theft, claiming that he lacked originality and had a penchant for using other artists’ work without proper credit or royalties.

He alleged that Burna Boy’s ‘City Boys’ and ‘I Told Them’ sampled the title track of his upcoming album, ‘Macabre’.

 Brymo’s allegations took a swipe at Burna Boy’s reputation, accusing him of not owning his musical success.

Burna Boy initially remained silent in response to Brymo’s accusations. However, he eventually broke his silence with a freestyle song, where he took a clear shot at Brymo, telling him that he fell off.
