Burna Boy Celebrates 5 Years Of 'African Giant' Exclusively On YouTube

Iconic Afro fusion artist Burna Boy celebrated 5 years of his classic studio album 'African Giant' with a very special and intimate live performance of the entire project for the latest edition of YouTube Music Nights.

The multilayered experience saw Burna hit the stage accompanied by a live band, backing vocalists, dancers and a carefully curated audience of huge Burna Boy fans who sang along to every song start to finish the entire night, which becomes very apparent if it wasn’t already noticeable when the musicians stop playing while Burna and the audience begin to sing in sync closer to the end of the performance on the night.

The Nigerian artist began his set with his usual swagger as he took to the stage sporting a very clean and tidy red leather jacket. As soon as the jacket came off, the high kicks and Afro moonwalks came out.. This lead to a massive surge of energy infectiously engulfed the beautiful Koko Camden venue.

This night was definitely one to remember and worth a watch if you haven’t seen it already. Relive or watch the full performance of this incredible night above and let us know your thoughts via the comment section below.

YouTube Music Nights - big artists, small venues.
