Nigerian singer, Damini Ebunoluwa Ogulu, popularly known as Burna Boy, has achieved a major feat as he becomes the first-ever African artiste to secure a UK Number 1 album with “I Told Them.”
Official Charts Company confirmed on Friday that Burna Boy’s seventh studio album, “I Told Them,” debuted at number 1 this week on the UK albums chart.
The ‘Last Last’ crooner was presented with a plaque by the British record chart company in commemoration of his record.“He told them! @burnaboy makes UK chart HISTORY today as he claims his first Number 1 album,” the company tweeted.
