Nigerian singer and International music superstar, Damini Ogulu better known as Burna Boy, has once again proven why he is called the African Giant as his latest exploit shakes the internet.

A recent publication by the France Billboard has got people talking as it creates a major buzz online. Burna Boy made history as he appeared on the cover of Billboard France.

The Nigerian singer is the first non-Francophone African artist to appear on the cover of Billboard France after his record-shattering exploits across Europe and particularly in France.

Burna Boy’s unique Afrofusion sounds have stood him out amongst his peers, which has also earned him a Grammy Award and multiple nominations.

His latest exploits and feats as an internationally renowned artist have become unignorable, and even Billboard France can’t help but put the Port Harcourt man on the cover of their magazine.

On the cover of the magazine, catchy phrases like “No Sign of Weakness”, and “From Lagos To Paris” were boldly written as they try to tell Burna Boy’s story.

These striking messages are vindications of the early days of Burna Boy’s career. The singer fought for his place within the music industry, moving from Port Harcourt to Lagos to pursue his dreams as an artist.

Calling out Coachella in 2019 for using small fonts for his name and describing himself as an African Giant who represents his proud African roots.

In their post, Billboard France praised Burna Boy for his cultural impact, calling him the ambassador of Nigeria’s booming music scene.

The platform highlighted his groundbreaking achievement as the first non-francophone African artist to headline France’s legendary Stade de France in 2025, a feat that cements his dominance in the global music industry.

With over 7 billion streams and a Grammy Award to his name, Burna Boy’s signature Afrofusion—a blend of Afrobeats, hip-hop, and global sounds—has captivated audiences worldwide, fueling a cultural revolution.

This moment marks a defining chapter in Burna Boy’s career as he continues to push boundaries and elevate African music to the world stage.

With No Sign of Weakness set to drop soon, fans can expect yet another groundbreaking project that showcases his artistry, storytelling, and global appeal.

As he graces the cover of Billboard France, Burna Boy not only makes history but reinforces his legacy as a true pioneer of Afrofusion and a force to be reckoned with in the global music landscape.
