Nigerian hip-hop superstar Burna Boy (real name Damini Ebunoluwa Ogulu) rose to fame in 2012 after releasing "Like to Party" from his debut album L.I.F.E. Since then, he's signed to a major U.S label (Atlantic Records) and has won a slew of awards including BET Best International Act and Album of the year at the 2019 All Africa Awards.

This year he was nominated for Best World Music Album at the 62nd Annual Grammy Awards.

Nick Bollinger reviews his latest release 'Twice as Tall' and ponders if Burna Boy can surpass the quality of his previous work.
