Grammy-winning Nigerian singer, Burna Boy, has taken to social media to address the misunderstanding surrounding his recent album release announcement.
On July 29, Burna Boy tweeted “Album dropping 12am”, which led many fans and media outlets to believe that his new album would drop on the same day at 12am.
However, Burna Boy has now clarified on Sunday, August 11, that he never specified the date, only the time. In a follow-up tweet, he wrote: “Ladies and gentlemen, A valuable lesson on paying attention to detail. I said 12am, I never said what date. No be say I whine una o Na una Lose guard” (translated to “It’s not me who misled you, it’s you who lost guard”).
Meanwhile, the singer‘s clarification has left many fans in stitches. While some praised his clever wordplay, others acknowledged their own mistake. Also, the mix-up has sparked a conversation about the importance of attention to detail, especially in the age of social media.
Lastly, Burna Boy‘s new album release date remains unknown, but fans are eagerly waiting for the official announcement.
