Singer Burna Boy has claimed that the Afrobeats genre has no substance.
The Grammy Award winner stated this during an Apple Music interview with Zane Lowe which was released on Tuesday, stating that the genre has no substance and is just about a “great time”.
“Afrobeats as people call it is mostly about nothing, literally nothing. There’s no substance to it. Nobody is talking about anything. It’s just a great time, it’s an amazing time,” he said.
