Jamaican born British female rapper, Stefflon Don has disclosed her boyfriend, Burna Boy's contribution to the #EndSARS campaign.
Recall that some Nigerians have lashed out at Burna Boy who they described as "audio Fela" for not coming out to lead the protest against the police unit in spite of throwing out a protest challenge to young Nigerians in the past.
In a Twitter exchange with a follower who queried her over the whereabouts of her boyfriend amid the protest, Stefflon Don stated that Burna Boy is doing more just tweeting.
This comes after Fireboy’s song, ‘Champion’ got used by European Champions, Bayern Munich.
Nigerian singer and songwriter Adedamola Adefolahan, known professionally as Fireboy DML makes his debut on football simulation game FIFA 21.

The deal negotiated by EMPIRE Publishing & YBNL makes Fireboy the first Nigeria-based artist featured in the official FIFA 21 game soundtrack which is set for launch worldwide on the 9th of October 2020, for PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC.

Overall, it marks a great few years for African artists and ‘Afrobeats.’ A few years ago, Shaku Shaku featured as a celebration on the NBA 2K19 video game.
Spaceship Entertainment boss Burna Boy fondly called the African Giant has thrown his weight behind Mavin Records singer Rema who has been ranting on Twitter.
For the past few hours, Rema has been telling his truth on Twitter from personal life, to the music industry, politics etc. The ‘Ironman’ crooner unequivocally bared his mind on social media which has gotten lots of fans surprised as to what triggered the outburst.
Somehow, Burna Boy seems profoundly proud after going though Rema’s tweets and has decided to support him.
Burna in a set of tweets said he is impressed that Rema is real and that he has officially a supporter, ‘I dey for you officially’ he tweeted.
