During a fun chat with tennis legend Roger Federer, Burna Boy was asked which superhero he’d choose to team up with if he could pick anyone. His answer was simple and powerful: “Black Panther.”
The Nigerian music star went on to share a personal story from his childhood, revealing his early love for comic books and superhero art.
“I used to draw superheroes when I was younger. I used to do the comic drawing of them,” Burna Boy said.
“That’s how I got the name Burna Boy ’cause I wanted to be a character in the comic book.” Burna Boy added
When asked what his superpower would be if he were a superhero himself, Burna Boy playfully responded with a fiery choice ‘fire and flames.’
Burna Boy is like a modern-day superhero, not because he fights crime, but because he uses his music to help and inspire people. Just like superheroes protect others from harm, Burna uses his songs to spread positive messages and give people hope. That’s what makes him a hero in his own way.
