The Grammy Award-winning artist, Damini Ebunoluwa Ogulu, known by his stage name Burna Boy, showcases his humorous side in a recent video from a UK award presentation that has left many in stitches.
Burna Boy was tasked with presenting the award for the best independent British designer alongside Yasmine Finney on stage. However, upon arrival, he faced difficulty pronouncing the words displayed on the TelePrompTer screen, leading to moments of hilarity.
Despite his struggles, Burna Boy managed to read out some parts, stating, “This award is for a designer here in the UK who’s independent…,” before reaching a dead end.
Showing his quick thinking, Burna Boy promptly called upon British rapper Stormzy for assistance during the UK award ceremony.

He said; “Come Stormzy, come and help me abeg. come here, help me read it.”
While they were standing next to each other on stage, Stormzy couldn’t hesitate helping his friend Burna Boy read his part.
Stormzy reads; “This award is for a designer here in the UK whose independent business is a vanguard of creativity and innovation.”
And the other lady on stage Yasmine Finney completed the reading; “and the best independent British designer winner is Wales Bonner.”
Burna Boy, nevertheless, was giving the winner, Wales Bonner, the award as she entered the stage.
Wales Bonner responded by saying that she is a big fan of Burna Boy and that it means a lot to her to receive the award from the Grammy award winner.
