When I’m making a project, I know what the project is.
It has to start with, with the name of the project.
And then we build… It’s like a movie.
If the movie is called Matrix or whatever, you get me?
Then in the movie, there should be some matrix things going on and some zeros and ones and some…
You can’t have a movie called Matrix and then there’s flowers and what’s the guy?
Seth Rogen smoking weed and stuff like that.

Burna Boy’s most effective super power is how comfortable he is in his range.
You can wake him up, drag him groggy-eyed to any studio, offering any extreme sound culture.
He won’t just deliver for you, he’ll do it like a natural, with comfort, artistic dexterity and potency.

Don’t release a 19-track album in 2022 because Burna Boy did.
Yours will be a long boring album.
Only Burna Boy does Burna Boy things.#LOVEDAMINI
