The release arrives alongside an official companion visual
Grammy Award-winning global superstar Burna Boy releases the official “Tested, Approved, & Trusted” single pack featuring Prince Swanny and Major League DJz. The pack includes three versions, each offering a unique musical journey, transporting listeners from the heart of Nigeria to the vibrant streets of Trinidad and the rhythmic beats of South Africa. The release is joined by an official music video which also includes a cameo from Sevyn Streeter.
Burna Boy recently wrapped up the North American leg of his I Told Them… Tour, which featured several sold-out dates. Throughout the tour, he treated fans to tracks from his No. 1 album I Told Them… In a historic sold-out show in Atlanta, R&B legend Toni Braxton surprised the audience by joining Burna Boy onstage to perform their platinum hit “Last Last.” It was their first live performance together since the song’s release. Ahead of the iconic performance, Burna was honored with his own official day bestowed by the mayor and City Boston.
Last year, the African Giant made history after being named the most streamed African artist worldwide on Apple Music in 2023. He also earned the title of most Streamed Artist in Sub-Saharan Africa on YouTube with more than 2.5 billion streams.
Burna Boy also made history with his sold-out show at New York City’s Citi Field stadium in 2023. Becoming the first African artist in history to sell out a stadium in the US, the Nigerian showman commanded a crowd of more than 40,000 fans, including celebs like Busta Rhymes, Sza, NBA star Mo Bamba, NFL star Larry Ogunjobi, and British rapper Dave, who also joined Burna on stage for a special performance of their hit song “Location.” This history-making performance shortly followed his landmark London stadium performance where he became the first African to headline a stadium in the UK.
