Burna Boy, the Grammy-winning Nigerian singer, recently made headlines for kicking a couple out of his concert in Denver, Colorado, for sleeping during his performance. The incident happened on November 12, 2025, at the Red Rocks Amphitheatre, where Burna Boy became the first Nigerian artist to headline the iconic venue.
The drama unfolded when Burna Boy paused his set and addressed the couple, saying, “When I stand up here and see you over there with your girl sleeping in front of me, it pisses me the f*k up. So, please, take her the f*k home… Walahi, I’m not performing another song till you go home”.
The couple initially resisted, but eventually left after the crowd started chanting for them to exit. Burna Boy resumed his performance, launching into his hit song “Ye”.
This isn’t the first time Burna Boy has kicked fans out of his concerts. He previously removed a fan who jumped on stage to hug him and another for not dancing during his performance.
The incident has sparked mixed reactions, with some fans praising Burna Boy’s zero-tolerance approach, while others criticize him for being too harsh.
