Looks like Burna Boy is thinking beyond the music charts—and towards the possibility of fatherhood.
During his lavish 34th birthday celebration in Lagos on Wednesday night, the Grammy-winning Nigerian artist (real name Damini Ogulu) surprised fans with a personal revelation: he’s now seriously considering starting a family.
“Jowizaza spoke to me recently, and I’ve been thinking about my life since then,” Burna said in Pidgin English. “Omo, I’m getting old oh, I should start having kids.”

The Conversation That Sparked It All
According to the Afro-fusion star, a deep conversation with Nigerian oil mogul Jowizaza sparked the reflection. And as Burna blew out the candles on his birthday cake, it seems the idea of settling down and becoming a dad is becoming more than just a passing thought.
Fans at the Lagos party were both surprised and excited, with many cheering and encouraging the idea of a mini Burna Boy.
