Burna Boy just did something no African artist has ever done, he sold out the famous Stade de France and gave a performance that Paris will never forget.

His show was packed with cool visuals, fireworks, and great music. Backed by his band, The Outsiders, and a group of dancers, Burna performed hit songs like City Boys, Last Last, and Sittin’ on Top of the World.

The crowd sang along loudly, making the night feel amazing.

After the concert, Burna Boy posted on Instagram saying, “Remember what I said about empty chairs? Thank you, France, for always helping my dreams come true.”

But Burna didn’t do it alone. He shared the stage with several stars from around the world, including Senegal’s music legend Youssou Ndour, British rapper Santan Dave, French-Congolese singer Dadju, and more who performed their song 4 Kampe together.

French-Cameroonian rapper Werenoi, Nigerian stars Fireboy DML and DJ Lambo, and Burna’s sister Nissi also joined him, making the night feel like a big international music party.

Burna Boy thanked his fans again, saying, “This stadium sold out in just a few months, and I wasn’t even on tour! Thank you all so much! And big thanks to everyone who performed with me—I truly appreciate you!”
