AKA – I never hated Burna Boy, he is still a champion

SA rapper, AKA slams claims on hating the Nigerian singer, Burna Boy.

There was a rift between the two stars since late last year, which was triggered by the xenophobic attack.

However, just after Burna Boy lost Grammy Awards’ win to Angelique Kidjo, some tweeps assumed AKA rejoiced.

The Fela In Versace hitmaker cleared all doubts saying, Burna Boy is still a champion despite loss.

“I never hated Burna Boy. All I did was stand up for my country. I think it’s time to move past this narrative. It’s tired. Like I said, even a nomination is a huge achievement.”

What you should have done is focus on the positive instead of thinking about me and my country. In any case, Burna is still a champion. We still consider him a winner. https://t.co/PGuy5cAT2i
