Okay, this was kinda shocking, not gonna lie! Burna Boy literally said the whole "African Giant" part of him is dead. He explained it on Instagram, sharing how people (yeah, especially from Nigeria) basically killed off that version of him because of all the drama, criticism, and just being judged all the time. Burna Boy said it actually hurt him a lot, like deep down, and now he feels haunted by that old side.
So now, he made this new version called "Big 7" to protect what’s left of himself. It’s like when people fake being tough so they don’t get messed with anymore—that’s kinda how he described it. In my opinion, I get why he'd want to switch things up. If critics and fans can be that harsh, it probably messes with your head.
Plus, with all this coming out right before his new album, "No Sign Of Weakness," it kinda makes sense he’d wanna let everybody know how he's really feeling. Sad but also kinda cool to see a celeb being this real. If you've ever had people not accept you changing, it's honestly so relatable.
