The rumor about Burna Boy’s mother emerged amid the singer’s recent drama involving low ticket sales in the United States.
The ‘Last Last’ crooner’s ‘No Sign of Weakness’ US tour was cancelled on Wednesday evening, with netizens alleging it was due to poor ticket sales.
Ticketmaster announced the last-minute cancellation on its website on Thursday but did not give a reason for the decision.
Also confirming the cancellation, Burna Boy, in a post on his Instagram story on Friday morning, shared a direct link from the ticketing website, showing that his two US concerts were indeed cancelled.
