Details/Takeaway: On March 31, 2020, Burna Boy later that his album will be titled, Twice As Tall – inspired by his Grammy loss. According to Burna Boy, he learned a lot about the Grammys from Angelique Kidjo. Now, he’s ‘Twice As Tall.’ The singer, born Damini Ogulu hoped the album will be released in July 2020.

This continues the trend of how Burna Boy names albums after his experiences. Upon release, Burna Boy wrote on his Instagram page that, “Honestly, no title cause I wanted the art to speak for itself, this album was a journey through a bunch of emotions and energies at different points in time.

It has now morphed into something bigger than me. It serves as a bridge for mankind to show that we’re all different but still very much the same. I’m grateful for the unreal talents that came together from ALL over the world to pull this off.

“Shout out to the OG @diddy for coming on board and sprinkling his own unique spice on this! I hope I’m able to spark something in you when you listen.”

If you have good memory, you would remember, ‘Way Too Big’ was teased during the IG Live battle between Leriq and Chopstix.
