Nigerian music sensation Burna Boy continues to make waves on the international music scene as his 2023 album, ‘I Told Them,’ achieves a remarkable feat on the UK albums chart. The Afro-fusion artist has once again extended his record as the Nigerian artist with the longest-charting albums in the UK.

‘I Told Them’ has now spent an impressive 13 weeks on the UK Albums Chart, solidifying Burna Boy’s position as a dominant force in the global music industry. This accomplishment adds to his legacy, with his previous album, ‘Love Damini,’ holding the record for the longest number of weeks on the same chart.

Burna Boy, recognizing his widespread acclaim, recently announced a live performance at the London Stadium scheduled for June 29, 2024. This upcoming event underscores the artist’s strong connection with his UK fan base.

While Burna Boy’s albums have achieved prolonged success on the UK charts, it’s noteworthy that he remains the first and only Nigerian artist to achieve this milestone, despite not securing a number one position on the UK Albums Chart.
