British singer, Jorja Smith has opened up on her experience working with Grammy winning Nigerian artiste, Damini “Burna Boy” Ogulu.
The 26-year-old songwriter described collaborating with Odogwu as “sickening” because the self-acclaimed African Giant crooner doesn’t write his songs.
Jorja and Burna Boy have worked together on two separate songs. They collaborated on her hit song, ‘Be Honest’ and ‘Gum Body’ off the Afrobeats star’s 2019 album, ‘African Giant.’
According to Afrobeats Villa, the Grammy nominated songstress said Burna Boy was only freestyling anything that came to him in the studio until it made sense.
Jorja said; “Working with Burna Boy is sick. He was just freestyling whatever was coming to him over and over again until it made sense”.
