The “Ye” crooner made the revelation while speaking during a Twitch live session with US streamer PlaqueBoyMax, where he shared details about his upbringing and his eventual shift in faith.
Burna Boy, who recently bought his best friend a Lamborghini, disclosed that he was raised in a devout Christian household and followed the faith because his parents were strong believers
However, as he grew older and began exploring life on his own terms, he developed a curiosity about religion that led him on a journey of discovery.
