Burna Boy Becomes First African To Hit Two Billion Streams In UK

Grammy Award winner, Burna Boy, has become the first African artiste to hit the two billion streams mark in the United Kingdom.

The “Twice as Tall” crooner was presented with a Brit Plaque at his sold-out show at Koko Camden in London on Monday night, in recognition of the feat.

This milestone came barely a few weeks after he was presented with a Brit 1 billion streams plaque at his sold-out show at the London Stadium in June.

In a viral video where he was receiving the Brit 2 billion streams plaque, Burna Boy said: ‘I fought for it’.

He said, “Thank you very much. I appreciate you. Ehen, now that’s it. You’ve to fight for your right.”

One of the presenters inferred saying, “You already have it. You don’t need to fight.”

Burna Boy rebuffed adding, “No. You know, we have to fight for our rights.”
