“Don’t Play With Burna Boy” — Omah Lay Names Outside as One of His All-Time Favorites

Omah Lay is never one to shy away from bold statements, and in a recent interview with Capital Xtra, the Afrobeats star shared his admiration for Burna Boy—giving a special nod to his 2018 project, Outside.

When asked to name the greatest Afrobeats album of his generation ahead of releasing his own “masterpiece,” Omah Lay kept it honest:

“See, don’t play with Burna Boy… it’s definitely one of Burna’s. My favorite Burna album is Outside. I’m not going to say it’s the greatest, but it’s my favorite.”

The comment reflects the deep respect Omah Lay has for Burna Boy’s catalog, especially Outside, a project widely regarded as a turning point in Burna’s global rise and artistic identity.
