Burna Boy takes a fall during his performance at the YouTube Live Concert

Nigerian singer Burna Boy recently celebrated the fifth anniversary of his successful album “African Giant” by performing at the YouTube Live Concert.

However, the artist has since become the subject of internet conversation after he fell off stage while performing. The artist cannot be faulted for always providing the best performance for his audience, which is what he was seen doing before the embarrassing fall.

Falz praises Fela and Plantashun Boiz as role models for singing socially conscious songs

Nigerian rapper Falz has named Fela and Plantashun Boiz the role models who shaped his artistry as a singer who spoke out about social ills.

In the latest episode with the Menisms podcast, Falz revealed that listening to music groups like Trybesmen, Plantashun Boiz and the legendary Fela Kuti helped direct his path to the music industry.

“The people I started listening to were the Trybesmen, Plantashun Boiz, and of course, a lot of Fela Kuti, so those early influences shaped my style. Coming in, I already knew that I would do things differently. That’s why much of my music has always been laced with activism,” he said.
