In “Twala Bum,” Burna Boy references the iconic 1972 Italian gangster film “The Godfather,” saying, “They call me 'The Godfather,' moving like an Italian.” “I'm going to do it,” he said. — ODG has always said that this is his favorite movie of all time and that no matter how many times he sees it he never gets tired of it, so he has it framed and displayed in his movie theater at home. pic.twitter.com/5I44qIGG6k

In fact, Burna boy is the perfect guy for the Tshwala Bam remix, whether he gets the best verse or not. If your song becomes a hit, he will be able to promote your song on his show. Jerusalema, Yaba Buruk, the second sermon was a successful long sermon. Even Asaaki benefited greatly… pic.twitter.com/NJ6opdLHYq

If you listen to the Tshwala bam remix and your body doesn't move. Either you are a sadist or there is no solution to the problem. What a mad bop. Burna is a very melodic guy. pic.twitter.com/k6qJXVKjYy

Anyone who says Burna Boy didn't remove this verse in his Twala Bum remix is doing so to get attention and shouldn't be taken seriously. pic.twitter.com/W0RvQgaEap

There's too much talk about songs that are just about atmosphere.
