Burna Boy claims he turned down $5 million for a show in Dubai. Find out the reason

Grammy winner Burna Boy has revealed that he recently turned down a $5 million offer to perform in Dubai, United Arab Emirates.

The artist claims he turned down the offer because he wouldn't be allowed to smoke weed in Dubai. UAE law prohibits smoking in parks, beaches and all public recreational areas in Dubai.

“Earlier, I refused money from Dubai, 5 million dollars for a small thing because I don't like going where they don't go, allow me to smoke some igbo,” Burna Boy freestyled while rehearsing with his band, Outsiders, in a video making the rounds on social media platform, X.
