Music Icon Burna Boy has finally turned things around after a dismal performance at award shows.
Recently in the United States, he won the Best African Music Artist at the 2024 iHeartRadio Music Awards.
American Rapper Ludacris hosted the award show which was held on Monday night.
The Best Collaboration of the Year went to Rema and Selena Gomez’s song “Calm Down.”
Before last night, Burna Boy had been on a winless streak at award shows, missing out on seven nominations at the 2023 BET Hip-hop Awards, four nominations at the 2024 Grammys, and six nominations at the 2024 NAACP Image Awards. On the other side of the Atlantic, he lost the Best International Artist of the Year at the 2024 Brit Awards.
Burna Boy and Rema now join Wizkid and Tems as the only Nigerian artists to have won iHeartRadio Music awards.
