Grammy-winning Nigerian singer, Burna Boy has denied the statement that Black Americans do not have a culture, stressing that he may have been misquoted.

The music star said this while fielding questions from an American media outlet, Complex.

He said that his mission is to build a bridge that cannot be broken.

Burna Boy said, “My mission is to bring us [the world] together. My mission is to build a bridge that can’t be broken, a bridge that should have always been there.

“People that said that [I alluded that Black Americans don’t have culture] have their own agenda.

“Coming back to the point of that I said black people have no culture or whatever. Does that even make sense? If you watched the video of the interview, if you can show me the part where I said black Americans don’t have culture. That is all I need. If somebody can just show me that part.

“There is nothing I said that Malcolm X didn’t say. But obviously, it’s Burna Boy saying it and he is from Africa and it fits the agenda for your little group or whatever.”
