Multiple award winning Nigerian artiste, Burna Boy recently took to his verified Twitter handle to let a few things off his chest.
 The singer, who won his first Grammy on Sunday night, March 14, for the Best Global Music Album, revealed that he did it on his own and his kids will beat their chest some day and say, ‘Daddy did it on his own.’ 

He also said he’ll never forget how people prayed for him not to win.


 He tweeted: ‘My kids will confidently beat their chest and say “Daddy did it on his OWN, We can do it on our own”.’
 He added: ‘When you KNOW yourself. NOBODY can tell you about yourself. KNOW YOURSELVES and never go against yourself.’


Burna Boy continued: ‘GOD is most definitely NOT A MAN. I will never forget how so many of you prayed that I don’t win. too dumb to understand that you also win if I win. No worry This is just the beginning. God is Great. “

  • Burna Boy won the Best Global Music Album at the 2021 Grammy Awards.


It would be recalled that Burna Boy won the Best Global Music Album at the 2021 Grammy Awards.

His album Twice as Tall won the award over records by Antibalas (FU Chronicles), Bebel Gilberto (Agora), Anoushka Shankar (Love Letters), and Tinariwen (Amadjar). The win marks Burna Boy’s first Grammy Award after being nominated last year.
