German professional footballer, Benjamin Paa Kwesi Henrichs of RB Leipzig has given reasons as to why he prefers Nigerian Afrobeats star, Burna Boy to other music talents from Nigeria.

Henrichs, in a video shared by sports journalist, Oma Akatugba, said he loves Grammy-winning singer, Burna Boy, because he makes good music as compared to the others.

The player chose ‘Last Last’ crooner when asked to pick his favourite artiste between the music industry’s leading trio; Davido, Wizkid, and Burna Boy.

The RB Leipzig’s full-back mentioned Burna Boy, saying “Burna boy, because he’s making good music.”

The German DFL Pokal winner then listed some of Burna’s hit songs, even vibed to some of them, explaining the sensational effect the music of the Nigerian superstar has on him.

“You know on the low, It’s plenty. You know, it’s good vibes. Davido and Wizkid are also very good.

I love ‘fall’ by Davido” he added.

Meanwhile, veteran Nollywood actor, Patrick Doyle, recently trashed the achievement of Nigerian Grammy award-winning singer, Burna Boy, in the music industry.

Naija News reports that this comes a few days after the singer, who prides himself as the ‘African Giant’, said many Nigerians do not know his worth.

The contribution of the ‘Last Last’ crooner in the Nigerian music space cannot be overemphasized, and he has consistently broken records both locally and internationally.

However, in a post via Facebook, Patrick Doyle said Burna Boy and his colleagues should ascribe the credit for their feats to great musicians who paved the way for them.

The movie star said that Burna has not done anything by himself that can be remotely described as outstanding because he and other Nigerian singers are recipients of the past musicians.

Doyle added that Nigerian singers need to be humble and respectful of their diligent predecessors like SunnyAde, Fela Anikulapo, Majek Fashek, Ik—Dairo and many others who paved the way from the ’60s to the 2000s.
