Terry G Supports Burna Boy Regarding The Recent Incident Involving Fans Appearing To Sleep During A Performance

Nigerian singer Terry G has expressed support for Burna Boy following reactions to a viral video showing the Grammy winner asking a couple who appeared to be sleeping during his concert to leave.

The incident, which occurred at one of Burna Boy’s recent performances, led to significant backlash and prompted some fans to consider boycotting his upcoming shows. Terry G questioned why individuals would attend a live concert only to fall asleep.

In a video response, he pointed out that celebrities often face criticism due to their public status. He compared the situation to a church environment, where ushers typically wake anyone found sleeping, suggesting that similar expectations should apply to musicians during live performances.

Terry G emphasized that such moments are frequently captured on camera and can be used to portray an artist negatively. He defended Burna Boy by stating that people tend to hold public figures accountable in situations where they would not expect the same standard in other settings.

“If it happened in a church and someone was found sleeping, would the pastors not ask the ushers to wake them up, Because he’s musician, you are going to his show to sleep, so the camera can capture that moment and spoil his show”
