In the wake of total lockdown imposed on states to contain the spread of coronavirus in the country, afro-fusion singer, Burna Boy was "bored" and guess what, he had time to answer every question fans threw at him.  

In series of question, fans asked him, the Grammy awards nominee spoke on different aspects of his life since he came into the limelight some years back.

Allnews reports that Burna Boy had initially said he was bored and would be going on Instagram live video for the first time, after a fan concluded by saying the "Ye" crooner was "on his best behaviour"

Surprisingly, the singer replied saying "I'm always on my best behaviour,  I'm just here waiting for someone or any FC to try the king today"

To start with, among series of revelations made by the singer, a follower asked how he had felt, losing Grammys award to Beninese singer, Angelique Kidjo.

He responded, "Sick. Totally sick. But my musical Mother @angeliquekidjo told me everything I needed to understand about the Grammys. So now I’m “Twice as Tall” (that’s the name of my next Album, by the way, dropping in July by the grace of the most High)"

Recall that the Beninese music legend had dedicated the award to the self-proclaimed African Giant.

A user had also alleged that Burna Boy had help in writing songs, in which the singer debunked by saying "For the record I have never had any help writing any song Ever. Except one time and that was with @Peruzzi"

On how he started his music career and motivatios, he said "I started in 2010, I was motivated by my Talent,passion, Family, AFRICA and FELA . Twitter does not have enough space for me to talk about the challenges. Just know that the Challenges don’t stop wen you are on Top, they get WORSE."

A fan idenntified as @Bashol_magic asked "If you're to go on a hit battle with any fellow Nigerian artiste, who would that be? #AskBurna"

Responding, the singer said "I don’t really know what a hit battle is but I’m willing to go toe to toe with ANY worthy challenger. Lyrically , musically  , physically. However they want it "

On how he feels when people claim he is proud, the "Anybody" crooner said "None of these twitter handles could ever say shit to my face. I wish they would tho. I really do"

Also asked a question on perceived beef with Wizkid, Burna Biy said "Don’t get it twisted @wizkidayo is my brother Forever And I Love him to Death! Even though Recently I don’t fuck with his Twitter “FC” I’m too seasoned to let “twitter handles”pitch me against any of my brothers for entertainment."

A fan also asked why he is not motivated to have a kid yet, despite the challenges he has gone through, but the singer said he wants to be more confident that he is stable first before having one.

"I just want to be as good a parent to my children as my parents were and still are to me and my sisters. Until I’m confident that I can be stable and settle with the mother of my kids I can’t have no kids."
