BURNA BOY TO LIVE STREAM AT THE FAMOUS MADISON SQUARE GARDEN, NEW YORK

April 27, 2022 by AFRIPOL Leave a Comment

The African giant and Afrobeat superstar Burna Boy will live stream his concert at the historic Madison Square Garden on April 28th, 2022. Burna Boy the Grammy winning singer will be the first African to perform at the sold out concert at the famous Madison Square Garden at New York City. Fans can watch the Afrobeat superstar premises as the first Nigerian musician to caption a show at the world’s most famous showground.

“Attendees at Madison Square Garden as well as Livestream watchers will be able to purchase the NYC-themed goods. Burna’s explosive energy is mixed with the authentic spirit of New York City in the elements and themes of the compositions. Beginning at 6:00pm EST on Thursday, April 28th, the online pieces will be available through Burna Boy’s webstore. Shirts, hats, hoodies, crewnecks, and tote bags are among the limited-edition goods, with prices ranging from $25 to $100.

Burna Boy’s sold-out debut at The Hollywood Bowl in Los Angeles, electrifying performances at the 2021 Global Citizen Festival and The Governor’s Ball, as well as sold-out international shows at London’s O2 Arena, Paris’ Accor Arena, Amsterdam’s Ziggo Dome, and other venues around the world as part of his 2021 Space Drift tour, are among the highlights of his 2021 Space Drift tour.”

“It’s a really exciting time!” Burna Boy told Rolling Stone when the show was first announced in December. “A kid from the south side of Nigeria headlining Madison Square Garden in New York as the first-ever Nigerian to achieve this! Not sure it gets any better and I’m extremely grateful!”

Burna Boy together with the energetic generation of Afrobeats singers with their great momentum have launched their talents and intellectual endowments in the global mainstream. They do not give excuse to fail but pull themselves by any means necessary. They are comfortable in their African skin and are not intimidated by any historical propaganda and generational injustice.

Nigerian younger generations have demonstrated that they were not held hostage by the lethargic and intellectual deficits of the older generation by continuous reinvention of themselves. They reinvented Afro beat music and took off from where the great Fela stopped. Now Afro beats or Afro fusion has become a household music around the world. Africans are no more consumers of outside music but exporters of hip and cool tunes with Afro indigenous touch.

Burna Boy has finally taken the Afrobeat music to the heart land of America @ Madison Square Garden and he deserves all the praises and accolades.
