Grammy-winning artist Burna Boy, known as Damini Ogulu, a Nigerian, has disclosed that he recently declined a $5 million offer to play in Dubai.
Burna Boy said that he declined the offer since smoking marijuana in UAE would be prohibited.
Smoking is forbidden by Emirati legislation in Dubai’s parks, beaches, and other public recreation places.
“Just now I turned down Dubai money, 5 million dollars na small thing cos me I no dey like to dey go where dem no go gree allow me smoke igbo,” Burna Boy made this revelation during his freestyle while rehearsing with his band, Outsiders, in a video making the rounds on social media platform, X.
Recall that during his freestyle, he threw shades at Brymo. He was performing a live rendition of what many believe is a freestyle or new song while encouraging others to hustle so that they don’t fall off like Brymo.
