Burna Boy Pays Tribute To His Grandma Ahead Of Historic Ziggo Dome Performance

Burna Boy thrilled his Netherlands fans on April 12, packing the famous Ahoy Arena on the night.

Following his performance, he paid a tribute to his grandmother, saying he wishes he could take her to all of his tours.

The one time Grammy-winner has been making stops across some of Europe’s biggest cities as part of his “Space Drift” tour. Rotterdam, Netherlands was the latest in his itinerary.

Burna Boy on Twitter: “Just in Amsterdam doing sound check and all I can think of is “I need my grandma everywhere I go” but that woman cannot understand/handle fans screaming and touching me, or seeing me stressed without crying so hard out of genuine fear and love. / Twitter”

Burna also returned in another tweet, revealing that his grandma’s genuine love for him is the reason he doesn’t believe in relationships, because he’s seen and felt genuine love, apparently.

Burna Boy and his mother Bose Ogulu share a very close relationship. Burna has previously cited her love, guidance, and support as crucial to his success while she’s remained a core part of his management team.

The “Ballon d’ Or” singer is still in the Netherlands, and will perform at the historic Ziggo Dome in Amsterdam on the 14th of April, after becoming the first African and Nigerian to sell out the ground.
