Burna Boy Claps Back at Eminem and the Internet Over Viral Concert Drama
Nigerian superstar Burna Boy is firing back after a viral moment from one of his concerts sparked reactions online, including from Eminem.
The drama unfolded when Burna stopped his performance midway to remove a couple from the audience for falling asleep during the show.
The incident quickly went viral, with Eminem weighing in on TikTok with a simple “Yo, this is not cool.”
Screenshots of the comment spread across social media, and Burna clearly saw them.
He responded on Instagram Stories, calling out how people only highlight his mistakes while ignoring his good deeds.
Burna pointed out that fans often treat performers like “strippers” just because they bought a ticket, amplifying the negatives while overlooking the scholarships, hospitals, and community projects he has funded in Nigeria for years.
Reports say the woman who was removed had recently lost the father of her child and was simply trying to escape for a night.
Despite the backlash, Burna Boy has not canceled any shows and continues his tour. Online, fans are split.
Some say respect the performance, while others call for empathy toward the grieving fan.
Either way, when Slim Shady and the African Giant clash over a nap, the internet will be watching.
