Burna Boy Crashes His $282,700 Worth Ferari
Grammy award-winning singer, Damini Ogulu, popularly known as Burna Boy, last Saturday night confirmed that he had a “bad accident” in his Ferrari.
This comes shortly after reports and viral videos which suggested that the singer might have been involved in an accident.
Confirming that he crashed his Ferrari, the Ye crooner noted, in his Instagram story, that his legs hurt a little but he was fine.
“Yes, it’s true. I had a bad accident in my Ferrari today. My leg just hurts a little but I’m fine,” Burna Boy wrote.
He, however, stated that he found it funny that people were recording him instead of trying to help.
Burna Boy opined that the onlookers were too excited to see him regardless of the accident, adding that he still loved his fans.
The three-time Grammy nominated singer added that his late bosom friend, Gambo, whom he eulogised earlier on his status, “got” him.
Burna Boy said, “It’s just funny how everyone came out with phones recording me instead of trying to help (I guess they were too excited to see me regardless of the situation) but I love you all. Gambo got me.”
Sharing a short video on his Insta story, the singer wrote, “Just for confirmation. This is my face”
This comes a day after the singer hinted that he was working on a new album.
R&B star, Temilade Openiyi, popularly known as Tems, has recounted the early-career challenges she faced, revealing that she was once booed out of the stage while performing at a school event.
Speaking in an interview with Newsmen, the Crazy Tings crooner shared that she wasn’t only booed but was also harassed with plastic bottles.
“I remember one time I was going to perform at my school as an up-and-coming singer and I thought I was going to receiving a standing ovation.
“But I got booed. They even threw plastic bottles at me,” she recalled.
Tems explained that despite the embarrassing incident and other such rejections, she remained determined to pursue a career in music.
The Tide Entertainment reports that Tems admitted that some of the initial rejections she faced could be due to her conviction to stick to her originality instead of doing covers or familiar sounds like most of her peers.
The Grammy-winning singer said looking back now, she is glad that she didn’t compromise her style despite the initial pressures.
A close associate of late singer Mohbad, Primeboy, has appealed for the artiste’s burial nearly three years after his death.
According to him, Mohbad’s body remains in the mortuary since September 12, 2023, pending burial arrangements.
The Tide Entertainment reports that in a statement Primeboy urged the family, public, and government to permit the burial, stating, “It’s been almost three years since Mohbad left us. His body is still in the mortuary. I’m begging the family, I’m begging the public, I’m begging the government, please let’s bury our brother. He deserves a befitting burial.”
It would be recalled that Mohbad’s death sparked public outrage, protests, and investigations. Ongoing autopsy examinations, police inquiries, and legal proceedings have delayed burial arrangements amid family disagreements and public scrutiny.
