In addition to this, Touring Data also posted that Burna Boy has earned the most expensive concert by an African artist in history with $172.76 average price at Hard Rock Live in Hollywood on March 12 as part of the ‘I Told Them’ tour.

Previously, Burna Boy made history by being the first African artist to headline and sell out the 19,000-capacity Scotia Bank Arena in Canada on February 24 and 25, 2024, highlighting his position as a prominent African artist on the world stage.

Earlier in the year, he became the first African artist to perform at the Grammy main ceremony, sharing the stage with 21 Savage and Brandy for a rendition of his hit single ‘Sittin’ On Top Of The World.’
