<\/div>\nRenowned Nigerian singer Damini Ogulu, popularly known as\u00a0Burna Boy<\/strong>, has released his latest album,\u00a0I Told Them\u2026<\/em>, under Atlantic Records.<\/p>\n I Told Them\u2026<\/em>\u00a0boasts a diverse tracklist throughout its 15 songs. Among the standout records are singles \u201cSittin\u2019 On Top Of The World\u201d featuring 21 Savage, \u201cBig 7,\u201d and Burna\u2019s reimagining of Byron Messia\u2019s summer sensation, \u201cTalibans.\u201d<\/p>\n Collaborative efforts shine on this album, with notable appearances from J. Cole, Dave, GZA, RZA, and Nigerian sensation Sey Vibez. J. Cole graces the closing track, \u201cThanks,\u201d while Dave brings his talent to \u201cCheat On Me,\u201d GZA is on the titular opening track, RZA appears on \u201cJewels\u201d and Seyi Vibez adds his magic to \u201cGiza.\u201d<\/p>\n The new record draws inspiration from the \u201990s hip-hop era, with Burna citing influences from the Wu-Tang Clan to Busta Rhymes across the album and its preceding interviews. It serves as the much-anticipated follow-up to last year\u2019s chart-topping\u00a0Love, Damini<\/em>, which included the massive hit \u201cLast Last.\u201d<\/p>\n With his previous studio album\u00a0Love, Damini,\u00a0<\/em>Burna Boy reached unparalleled heights in his career, securing his highest U.S. debut on the Billboard Top 200. The RIAA-certified platinum single, \u201cLast Last,\u201d reigned supreme on the Billboard U.S Afrobeats Songs chart for a remarkable 8 weeks before seizing the #1 spot at Urban radio. With his new project, Burna Boy hopes to do even bigger numbers.<\/p>\n Burna Boy I Told Them Album Cover<\/small><\/p>\n In a recent interview, Burna Boy revealed the inspiration behind his seventh studio album,\u00a0I Told Them\u2026.<\/em>\u00a0He shared that a trip down memory lane through his Twitter account revealed a series of tweets where he predicted and ultimately achieved his current successes. These tweets led to the album\u2019s apt title.<\/p>\n \u201cI was going through my old tweets and I saw all the things I said I was going to do,\u201d Burna Boy recounted. \u201cI saw all the things I said I was going to achieve, and I realized that I had actually achieved them all. So I thought,\u00a0\u2018I told them!\u2019<\/em>\u201c<\/p>\n I Told Them\u2026<\/em>\u00a0features songs that Burna Boy describes as centred around \u201csuccess, self-belief, and perseverance.\u201d He hopes the album serves as an inspiration to others, encouraging them never to give up on their dreams.<\/p>\n \u201cThis album is for anyone who has ever been doubted or underestimated,\u201d Burna Boy emphasized. \u201cIt\u2019s for anyone who has ever been told that they can\u2019t do something. I want this album to be a reminder that anything is possible if you believe in yourself.\u201d<\/p>\nLISTEN TO BURNA BOY\u2019S NEW ALBUM,\u00a0I TOLD THEM\u2026<\/em>, BELOW.<\/h2>\n
