Burna Boy’s achievement in headlining the London Stadium twice marks a significant milestone in African music history. He initially made history in June 2023 as the first African artist to headline the stadium, and he repeated this feat on June 29, 2024, with another sold-out show. Known for his electrifying stage presence and extensive catalog of hit songs, Burna Boy dazzled fans during his ‘I Told Them’ tour stop, accompanied by his Outsiders Band.
The concert featured collaborations with Nigerian artists like Odumodublvck, Shallipopi, and Seyi Vibez, who joined him on stage for memorable performances. Artists such as Boj and Omah Lay also attended, with Omah Lay expressing his admiration for Burna Boy as a role model in the Nigerian music industry.
Burna Boy’s continued success on the global stage underscores his influence and stature as one of Africa’s foremost musical exports, continually pushing boundaries and setting new records.
