Burna Boy Sparks Frenzy With Cryptic Tweet And Fans Go Crazy

Burna Boy, practically a deity in Nigeria’s artistic realm, recently put out a tweet that has set tongues wagging, giving birth to a thousand debates and pure speculation, so much so that those in the know are even losing it. Straight out of the legendary artist’s mouth came a cryptically simple message: ‘If you don’t get it forget it 😇 #NOSIGNOFWEAKNESS,’ complete with fiery visuals. Let’s just say the Internet didn’t forget either.

The tweet is a classic Burna-vague-that will get you overthinking, but somehow you still feel nice nodding along to it saying, ‘He is onto something.’ But the real club of heavyweights remains replies. Ohhhhhh, the replies.

Beginning with the heavy hitters: The G.O.A.T 🐐’ says @emmyagila, because duh. Enter @Wanculs begging, ‘Drop this song make we ganusi,’ with the likely translation being, ‘Drop the song so that we can vibe.’ Seriously-who’s in?

But others came not in goodwill. @oba_72cent said Burna is ‘dumb’ (partial heart emoji here, so might be love-hate?) while really going in with some other negativity on Burna, after @justtruth001, in response, told him, ‘Read your comment and compare his achievements with yours. Stop looking for relevance with cheap hateful comments.’ Ouch.

Now come the emotional ones. @GregStan12 goes into prayer mode: ‘God please let me not die without experiencing this. Jesus name let it happen to me please. Amen.’ Honestly, same energy in begging for concert tickets.

Compare on jealousy; @Big_nej on engagement numbers-‘I still wonder why he doesn’t get engagements on his posts.. you’d hardly see 1m view. E dey vex me sha.’ Meanwhile, @Maxbrown176 threw shade to ‘jealous’ folks and called it out to ‘Burna you’re big my fellow fc’s are just too jealous.’

Best for last! What really stands out is just a pure face-off despondency. Someone asked, ‘When did ijebus start to speak french?'(@AwolumateM) and @bishop_malawe gibber-jabbered back in saying that he has not placed a buy on a Lambo. Random? Uh-huh. Hilarious? Completely.

Gotta give him kudos too. Calling Burna a ‘mini god’, @aminu_purity; KABZZY_MOORE shouts ‘Greatness Only don’t fuck around’, and mufasaa007 goes ‘Idan kidan…highest’. Basically, Nigerian for ‘This dude is on another level.’

What can one deduce from here? Burna Boy tweets a five-word message, and it apparently amounts to an open-air fan meet, a debating ground, and a comedy stage rolled into one. Depending on your views: music, mess, or all-out vibes; one thing is for sure-when Burna speaks (or tweets), the people listen.

What if you don’t get that one? Then forget it.
