It received generally positive reviews from music critics, who applauded its production. It was nominated for Best Album of the Year at the 2014 Nigeria Entertainment Awards.

Outside was supported by six singles: "Rock Your Body", "Streets of Africa", "Koni Baje", "Sekkle Down", "Heaven's Gate" and "Ye". Its production was handled by Leriq, Baba Stiltz, Jae 5, Juls, Chopstix, Steel Banglez, Fred Gibson, Phantom and FTSE. The album received positive critical acclaim and was ranked by Pulse Nigeria and Nigerian Entertainment Today as the best Nigerian album of 2018.[27][28] It won Album of the Year at the 2018 Nigeria Entertainment Awards.[29] In February 2018, Outside debuted at number 3 on the Billboard Reggae Albums chart.[30] The album's biggest single "Ye" ended up atop most Nigerian publications year-end list as the biggest song of 2018.[31][32]

On 21 March 2019, Burna Boy released a 4-track collaborative EP with Los Angeles-based electronic duo DJDS, titled Steel & Copper.[39] It blends Burna Boy's upbeat melodies with DJDS' slinky trap beats.[40][41] Steel & Copper combines elements of dancehall and reggae music with Afropop and trap.[40][41]

On 24 June 2019, Burna Boy won Best International Act at the 2019 BET Awards.[42] In July 2019, Burna Boy was announced as an Apple Music Up Next artist.

African Giant was initially announced as a 16-track album.[48] In order to promote the album, Burna Boy headlined the African Giant Returns tour, the second leg of his African Giant tour.[49] Burna Boy recorded "My Money, My Baby", a track that appeared on Queen & Slim's soundtrack album.[50] Described as an "Afrobeat-tinged track", "My Money, My Baby" contains a sample of Fela Kuti's 1972 song "Shakara".[50]

In April 2020, Burna Boy performed in the One World: Together at Home special.[51]

On 19 June 2020, following the release of multiple singles during early 2020, by himself and on featured credits, Burna Boy was featured on the remix of South African producer Master KG's viral song "Jerusalema".[52] Burna Boy utilized his signature Afrobeats style on the song[53] and also partly sings in the isiZulu language.[52]

On 24 November 2020, Burna Boy album Twice as Tall was nominated under the World Music Album category in the 63rd Annual Grammy Awards alongside other entertainers like Antibalas, Bebel Gilberto, Anoushka Shankar and Tianariwen. This is the second year in a row that Burna Boy is getting a nomination in this category.[57] He won an Edison award in the World Album category for African Giant, and the Best International Act at the MOBO Awards on 9 December, shaking off competition from Drake, Megan Thee Stallion, Lil Baby and Roddy Ricch.[58] At the 63rd Annual Grammy Awards held on March 15, 2021, he won the Grammy for Best Global Music album.

Burna Boy′s ″Destiny″ was included in the playlist at the inauguration of Joe Biden.[59]

Burna Boy was featured on Jon Bellion's single "I Feel It", released on 17 September 2021.

Personal life

Burna Boy began dating Stefflon Don in 2018.[60] A fan of Manchester United, he took part in the official launch of their new away kit in September 2020.[61]

Controversies

Burna Boy's outspoken views have made him a controversial figure in the Nigerian and African entertainment industry. He has been in a feud with South African rapper AKA over anti-Nigerian tweets. In July 2019, Burna Boy posted controversial and threatening tweets after South Africa lost to Nigeria at the 2019 Africa Cup of Nations.[66] On 28 November 2019, Burna Boy was involved in an altercation with fellow Nigerian musician Davido at a nightclub in Accra, Ghana. The altercation resulted in the night club's bouncers escorting Burna Boy and his entourage out of the building. This was a result of a feud between the two that started over Instagram.[67][68]

Artistry

Burna Boy describes his music as Afro-fusion, a genre that blends Afrobeats, dancehall riddims, reggae, American rap and R&B.[44][11] August Brown of the Los Angeles Times said Burna Boy's sound is "savvy and modern but undistracted by obvious crossover moves".[69]
