I’ll be the best artist in Africa when I pick the mic again — former Cynthia Morgan

Nigerian singer Cynthia Ikponmwenosa Morgan, whose stage name is Martina but formerly was Cynthia Morgan, has defended Burna Boy in a recent instagram story post.

This post was shared from her Instagram account ‘@iamcmglobal’ on March 15, 2022.

A twitter user alleged that Burna Boy was only good for music video appearances at the time Wizkid became an international musician.

Madrina’s response to that tweet reads “Burna boy has always been a big artist. You were just a kid”

She later made the IG post after this tweet.

In her post, she revealed she almost lost her record deal because she refused to work with a different artists for her Simatinya music video.

The post reads “To me Burna Boy was the biggest artist in Africa when I picked him for Simatinya video.

“And I remember almost losing my record deal with Jude okoye’s label for standing my ground that it was only Burna Boy I wanted and no one else”

“I know alot you love living in lies either due to tribalism or personal hatred but please I never want to see my name in any sentence that has to do with a Burna boy slander.”

She ended the post with a statement implying Burna Boy is just holding on to her crown for her and will return it when she returns to music.

“He is the best and biggest artist in Africa till I PICK the mic again” she wrote.
