“My forthcoming album ‘I Told Them’ was inspired by my Twitter posts” – Burna Boy reveals

Nigerian superstar, Damini Ogulu, popularly known as Burna Boy, has revealed that his seventh studio album, ‘I Told Them’ was inspired by his old posts on Twitter.

The grammy singer, Burna Boy. Stated that he decided to take a drip down his first ever posts he made on Twitter, then he discovered that he had previously tweeted about all he is achieving, hence, he named the album, ‘I Told Them’.

Burna Boy disclosed this in a recent interview with American media outlet, Complex.

He said, “Them’ in my album title, is anyone that ever didn’t believe [in me] at any point in time.

“The way the name of this album came up is because one random day, I just went on my Twitter [page], and I started scrolling down to my old tweets. I wanted to see what the first tweet I ever tweeted was, for some strange reason.

“And then it just sent me down this rabbit hole, where I’m just looking at everything I ever said. I’m like, wow! It’s crazy. I really did say all these sh*ts that are happening now. And that kind of made me name my album, ‘I Told Them’.

According to him, the album “I told them” will be released on Friday, August 25, 2023.

The singer said the project will have a sequel that would be released later.
