Burna Boy blasts critics after his reported N9bn Bugatti purchase. The Grammy winner addresses the backlash with a bold freestyle at Afronation Portugal.
Grammy-winning Nigerian superstar Burna Boy has finally responded to critics attacking him over his reported N9 billion custom Bugatti Chiron. The luxury ride sparked heated debates across social media.
While some fans praised the purchase, others questioned why he spent so much on a car instead of investing or supporting charity. Many also argued that Nigeria’s roads are not suitable for such an expensive vehicle.
However, Burna Boy did not stay silent. During his performance at Afronation in Portugal on Friday night, he delivered a freestyle aimed at his critics. He rapped,
“I buy Bugatti, dem ask which road I go drive am? No be today we dey do road like Julius Berger.”
The line quickly went viral, with fans sharing clips and praising his confident response.
Meanwhile, the Bugatti controversy has reminded many people of Burna Boy’s public drama with socialite Sophia Egbueje. Last year, she claimed the singer promised to buy her a Lamborghini in exchange for intimacy.
According to her, Burna Boy later failed to keep the promise. Although the singer neither confirmed nor denied the allegation, he mocked the situation in his song “No Do,” where he joked about someone “shouting” over a Lamborghini.
Sophia later announced that she had bought the Lamborghini herself. The development kept the controversy in the spotlight for weeks. Now, Burna Boy is making headlines again, but this time for his luxury Bugatti and his bold response to critics. Whether fans agree with him or not, the Grammy winner has once again dominated conversations online.
Interestingly, Burna Boy recently marked his birthday in grand style with close friends, family, and industry colleagues. The celebration came shortly before reports of his custom Bugatti Chiron surfaced online, making the luxury purchase another major talking point. While the criticism continues, Burna Boy appears focused on enjoying the rewards of his success.
As conversations around the car grow louder, the Afrobeats star has made one thing clear—he has no plans to let public opinion dictate how he spends his money.
