Remarkably, the 15 songs on this outstanding album, I Told Them, each have their own distinct style and character. The impressive roster of collaborators Burna Boy has put together for this record is what’s most exciting. You will discover magnificent collaborations with J. Cole, RZA, Seyi Vibez, Dave, 21 Savage, and GZA among the featured artists on the outstanding album, making it a genuinely eclectic and exhilarating musical experience.
Burna Boy has been shrewdly expanding his audience in the West for some time. He has appeared on songs by Sam Smith and Justin Bieber, while the Nigerian superstar also appeared on his own albums alongside US and British rappers as well as Coldplay’s Chris Martin and Ed Sheeran, who contributed to the album Love, Damini in 2022.
There is nothing more overtly intended to draw attention than I Told Them, an album on which the guest list sticks steadfastly to fellow Nigerians, including rappers 21 Savage and J Cole, who graces Sittin’ on Top of the World with his incredibly original brand of chat-up line, “I can help you shit on anybody you ever hated.” However, it still aims to benefit from Burna Boy’s growing popularity in the US.
The Grammy-winning Nigerian artist, Burna Boy, recently discussed the idea behind his upcoming seventh studio album, “I Told Them”. The African Giant claimed to have taken a journey down memory lane on his Twitter profile and found that he had previously tweeted about everything he is currently accomplishing. As a result, he named the album “I Told Them”.
