Burna Boy pauses Colorado concert over disengaged fans

SHARE

Grammy-winning Afrobeats star Burna Boy made headlines during his Colorado concert when he abruptly stopped his performance to call out a couple in the audience who appeared disengaged.

The incident unfolded as the “African Giant” noticed a male fan and his girlfriend near the front of the stage, seemingly asleep or unresponsive during the high-energy set. A video from the show, now circulating widely online, captures Burna Boy addressing the couple directly: “Bro, I'm not doing no more songs until you take her home. Wallahi I'm not doing another song until you go home.”

Concert-goers described the moment as both shocking and amusing, highlighting Burna Boy’s no-nonsense approach to audience engagement. The couple was eventually escorted out of the venue, allowing the performance to continue.

The episode adds to Burna Boy’s reputation for demanding lively participation from his fans, echoing a similar moment at an Atlanta concert in 2019 when he sent a fan home for a lackluster reaction. The Colorado concert incident is already sparking conversation online about the sometimes intense dynamic between Burna Boy or any other performer and their audiences.
