Burna Boy, the Afro-fusion singer, has put out the visuals for ‘Common Person’, a track from his sixth studio album ‘Love, Damini‘.
The Grammy award-winning star released the music video on Monday evening.
Directed by the talented director K, the crisp visuals see the singer taking up the role of an ordinary man in society — like pounding of yam and cutting of vegetables.
He also talks about the struggles of the “common man” in Nigeria.
“Na me wey dey clean una house. Na me wey dey wash una car. Na me wey dey cook ununu. Na me wey dey wash una cloth,” he sings.
“Na me wey dey work for your shop. Na me wey dey hawk ununu.
“I be common person, but my happiness, oh, still be my own. Everybody get role, no mean say your own role passin’ my own.

Born Damini Ogulu, Burna Boy started to gain fame after releasing ‘Like to Party’, the lead single from his debut album ‘L.I.F.E’ (2013).
Burna Boy has established himself as a household name in the music industry with several awards and recognition.
In 2021, the singer set a record in Nigeria after his fifth album ‘Twice As Tall’ won the ‘Best World Music Album’ category at the Grammys.
In 2022, the Afrobeats star’s 6th studio project became the highest-charting Nigerian album of all time on the Billboard 200.
On April 28, the ‘African Giant’ crooner made history as the first Nigerian singer to headline a concert at Madison Square Garden in New York.
