A video has captured the moment Burna Boy met a Colombian artist who tattooed his portrait on the artist's arm.

In the now viral clip, the Colombian visual artist approached Burna Boy with excitement written all over him.

Without hesitation, he rolled up his sleeve to reveal a bold, detailed tattoo of the singer’s face spread across his arm.

Seeing the tattoo, the Grammy winner Binstinctively stepped back, eyes widened, and exclaimed:

“Oh sh*t!”

Legit.ng recalls that the singer had been in the news for the wrong reason after he sent a sleeping fan away from his concert in the United States.

The action drew backlash from Nigerians who described it as disrespectful. The matter was further compounded after a video showed the singer doubling down on his action.

However, clearing the air on the clip, Burna Boy explained that the controversial clip was taken completely out of context.

According to him, he was teasing members of his band about something unrelated when the camera caught him mid-joke, but social media users twisted it into a narrative that he “doesn’t need fans.”

He expressed frustration at how quickly people assume the worst about him. He wrote, “I was joking around with my band about something else. You people spun it as usual, saying ‘Burna Boy doesn’t love his fans’.”

The singer noted that haters who never acknowledged his achievements were suddenly loud and eager to drag him.

He stressed that he has always shown love and respect to those who show the same to him, adding that people often ignore the good he does.
