Grammy-winning artist Burna Boy has expressed his belief that a significant portion of Afrobeat artists lack meaningful content in their music.
Speaking in an interview with Zane Lowe on Apple Music, Burna Boy shared his perspective that many Afrobeat artists lack substantial life experiences, resulting in their music feeling empty.
He emphasized the importance of infusing music with life experiences, describing Afrobeat as a genre known for its lively and entertaining nature, but often lacking in depth.
According to Burna Boy, artists draw inspiration from their personal ups and downs, their good and bad days, as well as challenging moments, which then influence their songwriting.
