A first, for a Nigerian artist. Burna also took this opportunity to tease the release of a new album entitled <em>Love, Damini<\/em>. The release date of which has been the subject of uncertainty. Initially believed to be released on the 2nd of July to celebrate Burna Boy\u2019s 31st birthday &#8211; the African Giant hinted as much in an interview on The Daily Show with Trevor Noah &#8211; it was then suggested it would be released on the 30th of June by Pitchfork\u2026 Other dates have also been relayed (27th of May, 1st of July), We\u2019ll just have to wait and see. It will be the artist\u2019s follow up to the Grammy-winning <em>Twice As Tall. <\/em>The singer took to Twitter to comment on his new project which he called a \u201c<em>personal body of work<\/em>\u201d about \u201c<em>the ups and downs, the growth, the L\u2019s and W\u2019s<\/em>\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:30px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe title=\"Burna Boy - Last Last [Official Music Video]\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/421w1j87fEM?feature=oembed&#038;autoplay=1\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:30px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><br>To counteract all of this uncertainty and to appease his admirers, Burna Boy has unveiled the music video of the track \u201cLast Last\u201d which will be part of his new highly anticipated album. This single samples &#8220;He Wasn&#8217;t Man Enough\u201d from RnB legend Toni Braxton. Quite an interesting choice as it gives another ironic connotation to his clip in which he stages himself in an opulent setting, surrounded by expensive cars and wearing luxurious watches, at times in a huge modern mansion and at others in a private jet. But the title is also a nod to his community. \u201c<em>I need Igbo and Shayo\u201d <\/em>is sung in the chorus (the Igbo people being an ethnic group in Nigeria while \u201cShayo\u201d is a Nigerian slang term which refers to alcohol).
