The singer-songwriter stated that most Nigerians think the musician isn’t on the same level with American musicians.
The singer said his forthcoming album, āI Told Themā¦,ā is his flippant response to naysayers who have attempted to discredit him, both at the beginning of his career and now.

The self-styled āAfrican Giantā bemoaned how Nigerians often rate up-and-coming American rappers above him.
He said, āTo this day, thereās many Nigerians who can tell you an American rapper who just started their career, and theyāll say theyāre bigger than Burna Boy. They donāt understand it. Theyāll say, āThereās no way someone who talks like me, can even be on the same level as an American artist.ā
