Burna Boy has reciprocated the gesture that Angelique Kidjo, the Beninese singer showed him when she paid homage to him on Sunday by offering his congratulations.
Angelique Kidjo and Burna Boy were among those in contention for the Best World Music Album and she ended up getting the coveted prize.
While receiving the honor, Angelique (who has been called ‘Africa’s Premier Diva’) gave a shout out to Burna, calling him one of those changing the music scene on the continent.
Now, Burna has responded to her by posting on his Twitter page where he expressed love for her and those who rooted for him, saying he didn’t take the gesture lightly.
I love you forever @angeliquekidjo and every single person that rooted for me, I don’t take any of it lightly!

Such actions show the love and respect that African artists should show one another as unity is the one thing that conquers every opposition.
