“No Album Till Further Notice” – Burna Boy

Grammy award-winning singer, Damini Ogulu, popularly known as Burna Boy, on aturday declared that he will not release any album till further notice.

The self-acclaimed ‘African Giant’ made this disclosure via his Insta story.

On his Instagram stories, he wrote that, “I might decide not to drop an album for a long time. In fact, you know what, no album till further notice.”

In April 2021, Burna Boy teased an August 2021 release for his new album. But having released two singles, ‘Kilometre’ and ‘Question’ with Don Jazzy in 2021, he looks to have shelved those plans.

A year without an album release would be Burna Boy’s first since 2017. In the last three years, he has released Outside, African Giant and Twice As Tall, which dropped in August 2020.

Burna Boy’s last album, Twice As Tall, which was released in August 2020, earned the singer his first Grammy award win.

Burna Boy who lost out to Angelique Kidjo in the last Grammy edition won the Best Global Music Album category with his Twice As Tall album, beating Antibalas (FU Chronicles), Bebel Gilberto (Agora), Anoushka Shankar (Love Letters), and Tinariwen (Amadjar).

The album featured guest appearances from Naughty by Nature, the Kenyan band, Sauti Sol, Senegal’s musical titan, Youssou N’Dour, and Chris Martin of Coldplay.
