In a recent interview with Chude Jideonwo, Oritsefemi recalled that the ‘On The Low’ crooner cried to him for help, saying his home was no longer conducive for him.
Oritsefemi, the popular Nigerian singer, has spoken up about how he accommodated Burna Boy, his Grammy-winning colleague, during a disagreement with his mum years back.
In a recent interview with Chude Jideonwo, Oritsefemi recalled that the ‘On The Low’ crooner cried to him for help, saying his home was no longer conducive for him.
He said, “Burna Boy came to live in my house after a disagreement with his mum. He dey come dey with me because he thought his mom was suffocating him in his own house.
"He cried to me. And said, ‘Bro, you will become somebody someday’.”
Recall that Burna Boy initially sacked his mum as his manager back in 2014 after a disagreement.
On July 11, 2014, the singer announced via his X (formerly Twitter) handle that his mother would no longer be his manager.
He wrote, “It’s been a long road to where I am today and my mother Bose Ogulu has managed me the best she could up till this point and am grateful…at this point in my life and career, it is time to let my mother be my mother and let my manager be my manager, therefore Bose Ogulu is no longer my manager.”
However, she resumed managing him since 2017.
