Award-winning Nigerian singer Burna Boy has reacted to the social media uproar following reports that he ordered a couple to leave his concert in Colorado over the weekend.
In a circulating clip from the event, the couple appeared to be escorted out after an exchange that reportedly displeased the superstar. The incident quickly triggered debate online, with many fans questioning the decision.
Reacting to the backlash, Burna Boy—known for his blunt, unapologetic style—dismissed the criticisms, saying:
“I tell you say make una be my fans? We dey look for fans wey get money this period oh. Ara n kan Gaza.”
His comment, which many interpret as a mix of sarcasm and jest, further fueled discussions across Nigerian social media platforms.
Some users accused him of being insensitive and disrespectful to supporters, while others defended him, arguing that the couple must have violated event rules or acted inappropriately for security to get involved.
However, a portion of online commenters sharply criticized the singer’s response, calling it unnecessary and labeling him “arrogant,” with some describing his reaction as that of a “dumb artist”—a phrase that trended briefly as Nigerians expressed their displeasure.
As of now, Burna Boy has issued no additional clarification about what led to the couple’s removal, and the concert organizers have also remained silent on the matter.
The incident adds to the ongoing debate surrounding celebrity conduct, fan engagement, and the expectations placed on global music stars during live performances.
