Bose Ogulu’s Biography: Education, Career, Family, and Her Role in Burna Boy’s Success

Do you know Bose Ogulu, Burna Boy’s mother? You may have noticed the beautiful boss mummy that is always present and watching over Burna Boy and Nissi Ogulu.

Why Sampling Old Songs is Both Fun and Risky in Afrobeats Singers

Many Nigerian artists like Burna Boy, Ayra Starr, and Wizkid have made cover versions of several old songs. Which is nice if you are thinking of nostalgia and the throwback. Take for instance Burna Boy’s Last Last — it was purely in Pidgin English, and you somewhat had to listen closer to hear Toni Braxton’s He Wasn’t Man Enough for me. We got the vibe. Then came Ayra Starr, who almost five sampled songs in her discography, including Sare (2021) samples Lijadu Sisters’ Orere Elejigbo, Sability (2023) interpolates Awilo Longomba’s Coupé Bibamba, and Gimme Dat (2025) samples Mary J. Blige and Wyclef Jean’s 911. Although Afrobeats singers add a personal touch and that Afrobeats vibe to the songs they sample, it is worth asking: do Afrobeats top acts need to sample older songs so much W...

OnlyFans Model, Envy Erica, Claims “Nasty” Fling With BurnaBoy

Burna Boy is back in the middle of online chatter after OnlyFans model and influencer Erica Scott, also known as Envy Erica, made some bold claims about an alleged past hookup with the Nigerian superstar.

Femi Otedola grins as he receives a nostalgic gift from his daughter, Temi Otedola

Femi Otedola was all smiles as he unboxed a nostalgic gift from his daughter, Temi Otedola, who recently tied the knot with afrobeat singer, Mr. Eazi. Before he got to the gift proper, he opened an adorable note that read: “No matter how hard it gets, at least you don't have ugly children.” He opened the box, which contained an Ayo, also known as Ayo Olopon, a traditional Yoruba strategy board game from Nigeria played by two players using a carved wooden board with 12 holes and 48 seeds or pebbles. In fact, for children from lower-class homes, twelve holes are dug in the ground, and the pebbles are different-colored stones. These traditional materials are quite different from the ones Temi Otedola gifted her billionaire father. In true billionaire fashion, the board seemed...
