Afro-fusion star, Damini Ogulu aka Burna Boy pulled stunning performance on global comedy show ‘The Daily Show’.<\/p>\n

‘The Daily Show’ is an American late-night talk show that piques on satire and self-deprecatory humour to discuss socially and culturally relevant stories.<\/p>\n

The show is currently hosted by South African comedian, Trevor Noah and has won 24 Primetime Emmy Awards.<\/p>\n

Burna Boy, on Tuesday night, appeared alongside Mark Sanford, a former US representative and former Governor of South Carolina.<\/p>\n

News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) reports that the ‘African Giant’ performed hit tracks ‘Ye’ and ‘Anybody’, eliciting loud cheers from the audience.<\/p>\n

He was dressed in a multicolored striped outfit, a pair of glasses and a neck full of diamonds while rocking his signature braids.<\/p>\n

In an interview with Noah, Burna Boy explained the reasons for his outburst over the Coachella poster in January.<\/p>\n

The incident, which birthed the ‘African Giant’ moniker, saw Burna Boy accuse Coachella of disrespecting him by writing his name in small fonts.<\/p>\n

Explaining the situation to Noah, he said, “I am looking for my name and I can’t find my name. I am like – am I really performing?<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

“They had to circle it for me. That’s never happened to me before. I am used to being the African giant.<\/p>\n

“I didn’t like it and I expressed myself. Not just for that but so, everyone that comes after me won’t have to go through that,” he said.<\/p>\n

Trevor Noah noted that people might not understand Burna Boy’s huge influence as an artist in Nigeria and in Africa, the continent with one of the world’s largest population.<\/p>\n

NAN reports that in July, Burna Boy released an album titled ‘African Giant’, referencing the Coachella incidence. It was premiered on Jimmy Kimmel’s show.<\/p>\n

The 19-track album contains his biggest 2019 hits including ‘Killin Dem’ featuring Zlatan, ‘Anybody’ and ‘Dangote’ alongside a titular track ‘African Giant’ and several international collaborations.<\/p>\n

Amongst the artists featured were Jorja Smith in ‘Gum Body’, Manifest in ‘Another Story’, Jeremih and Serani in ‘Secrets’.<\/p>\n

Damian Marley and Angelique Kidjo in ‘Different’, Future in ‘Show and Tell’ and YG in ‘This Side’ were also featured. (NAN)<\/p>\n
