Afrobeats, according to Grammy Award-winning musician Burna Boy, is “nothing” and has no substance.
The artist asserts that 90% of Afrobeats songs are devoid of real-life experiences and just depict a great time, which is not what life is all about.
This was stated by the self-styled African Giant in a recent interview on Apple Music.
Not even experience, as 90% of them, or half of them, lack any relevant real-world knowledge.

“That’s why you hear most Nigerian music, African Music, or Afrobeats, as you people call it, is mostly about nothing, absolutely nothing. There is no substance to it, like nobody is talking about anything, it’s just a great time. But at the end of the day, life isn’t an amazing time.”
His statement has since sparked a range of reactions on social media with some agreeing with him, and others criticizing him for being arrogant.
