Burna Boy, the Grammy-winning Nigerian Afrobeat superstar, has once again made history by becoming the first African artist to solo headline a UK stadium twice.
The 80,000-capacity London Stadium was filled to capacity on Saturday night, as fans eagerly awaited the “African Giant’s” electrifying performance.
Burna Boy’s show was legendary, featuring an unforgettable set filled with chart-topping hits and unreleased tracks. The crowd passionately sang along to fan favorites like “I Told Them,” “Gbona,” “Location,” and “Last Last”.
One of the most memorable moments of the night was when Burna Boy brought out popular Nigerian comedian Sabinus to entertain the audience before his performance. Sabinus’ hilarious antics set the perfect tone for the main event, leaving the crowd in stitches.

Burna Boy’s success story serves as an inspiration to aspiring artists from Africa and beyond.
In a pre-show interview, he stated, “I’ve been told that I couldn’t achieve anything because of where I came from. I hope this can show people that when you have a dream, it doesn’t matter where you’ve come from, your dream can come true.”
With his record-breaking performance, Burna Boy has once again proven that he is a force to be reckoned with in the music industry.
His unwavering dedication to his craft and his commitment to representing Africa on the global stage have earned him a legion of loyal fans and the respect of his peers.
