The news was made public on his X account handle in the early hours of July 29, 2024, and the three words “Album dropping 12M” sent fans into a frenzy of excitement as they speculated as to whether the Grammy winner was pulling a practical joke.

Following Burna Boy’s recent celebration of the fifth anniversary of his Grammy-nominated 2019 album “African Giant,” which he honored with a show at the Koko Camden, comes the startling announcement.

Burna Boy has released five albums in the last six years, so his declaration is surprising even though the news seems too fantastic to be true.

Since Burna Boy’s recent album release was not received with the same level of meticulous planning and execution as in the previous five years, some fans believe the announcement to be a joke or a purposefully unclear message. The news raises additional questions because it is unusual for artists to reveal new work on a Tuesday.
Burna Boy recently began 2024 with the release of the song “Higher,” in which he thanks fans for his achievement in a video that features him returning to his hometown of Port Harcourt with tears.
In any case, fans will be anxiously anticipating July 30, 2024, at midnight to find out if a new Burna Boy album will be available.
