Burna Boy - Twice as Tall [2LP]

Twice as Tall is the fifth studio album from the Afro-fusion pioneer and newly crowned Grammy Award-winning global superstar BurnaBoy. "The album is inspired by a period of time in my life," Burna explains. "It's an album about the struggle for freedom. It's the album about life in general, real life, good times, bad times, happy times, sad times, great times."

Executive produced by Sean "Diddy" Combs, Bosede Ogulu and Damini "Burna Boy" Ogulu, Twice As Tall sees notable features from Senegal's Youssou N'dour, Naughty By Nature, Kenyan band Sauti Sol, Chris Martin of Coldplay and Stormzy with additional appearances from LeriQ, Telz, P2J, Rexxie, Timbaland, Mike Dean, Anderson .Paak and Mario Winans. The album, mostly recorded in Lagos during the COVID-19 pandemic, is a beautiful mélange of sounds. Eleven of the fifteen tracks were produced by Nigerian producers, eight of which are from the Spaceship Collective.

Throughout Twice as Tall, Burna Boy takes stock of his accomplishments, his vulnerabilities and at the same time encourages ambition and perseverance in the face of uncertainty and against all odds. While this album is a pure, unapologetic African body of work, it boasts of a global contemporary sound that is for everyone. For the "African Giant" this project is a product of a potpourri of emotions and he is now standing Twice As Tall.
