Burna Boy disclosed this in a recent interview with American media outlet, Complex.

He said, “Them’ in my album title, is anyone that ever didn’t believe [in me] at any point in time.

“The way the name of this album came up is because one random day, I just went on my Twitter [page], and I started scrolling down to my old tweets. I wanted to see what the first tweet I ever tweeted was, for some strange reason.

“And then it just sent me down this rabbit hole, where I’m just looking at everything I ever said. I’m like, wow! It’s crazy. I really did say all these sh*ts that are happening now. And that kind of made me name my album, ‘I Told Them’.

The album will be released on Friday, August 25, 2023.

The singer said the project will have a sequel that would be released later.

In related news, Burna Boy has reacted to a Google report that set his net worth at 22 million dollars as he hints at his real worth.

During a recent interview, the anchor informed Burna Boy that a quick Google search revealed his net worth to be 22 million dollars.

Burna Boy burst out laughing at this revelation. He continued this way for several seconds before coming around.
