#jaiyeorie Additional information reveals that Burna Boy declined a performance in Dubai worth over N10 billion due to the city's smoking ban. Grammy-winning musician Burna Boy, also known as Damini Ogulu, a Nigerian, has disclosed that he recently declined a $5 million offer to play in Dubai, United Arab Emirates.
He said that he declined the offer since smoking marijuana in Dubai would be prohibited.Smoking is forbidden by Emirati law in Dubai's parks, beaches, and other public recreation areas. Burna Boy freestyled while practicing with his band, Outsiders. "Just now I turned down dubai money, 5 million dollar na small thing cos me I no dey dey go where dem no go gree allow me smoke igbo."
Snoop Dogg may have a run for his money as weed king if Burna Boy’s latest story is true.
In a clip making the rounds online, the Nigerian crooner flexed exactly how much Mary Jane means to him (and how a measly $5 mil is pocket change).

In the clip, Burna raps: “Hustle make you no go fall of like Brymo, Just now I turn down Dubai money, $5m na small thing,/ Cos me I no dey like to dey go/ Where dey no gree me smoke Igbo.”
The line also doubles as a shot toward Brymo, another Nigerian singer. It appears he caught wind of the lyrics and responded, calling Burna “foolish.”

Brymo recently accused Burna Boy of plagiarism and said he committed a “crime.” He alleges that two songs off Burna Boy’s latest album, I Told Them…, “City Boys” and the title track, are based off the title track of Brymo’s upcoming album, Macabre.
