Over the weekend, Burna Boy did what no African artist has done before, he sold out the legendary Stade de France, and gave a show that Paris won’t forget any time soon.
“Remember what I said about empty chairs?” he wrote on Instagram after the show. “Thank you France for consistently making my dreams come true.”
And what a dream it was. The Afrofusion superstar lit up one of Europe’s biggest stadiums with an explosive performance packed with music and movement. With his band, The Outsiders, and a full squad of dancers holding it down behind him, Burna moved through fan favourites like ‘City Boys,’ ‘Last Last,’ and ‘Sittin’ on Top of the World.’ Each track louder than the last thanks to a crowd that came ready to sing.
The night was more than a solo spotlight. The stage lit up with a parade of talent from across continents—Senegalese legend Youssou Ndour, British rapper Santan Dave, French-Congolese singer Dadju, and French-Haitian artist Joé Dwèt Filé, who joined Burna for a performance of their ‘4 Kampé‘ remix. French-Cameroonian rapper Werenoi also brought his fire to the stage, along with Fireboy DML, Shallipopi, DJ Lambo, and Burna’s sister Nissi, turning the concert into a global celebration of sound.
And there were fireworks too!
“Sold this stadium in a couple of months, off cycle! I’m so thankful for you all!!” Burna shared. “Big love to all my people that graced the stage with me! I appreciate every last one of you.”
