Sky B Claims He Paved the Way for Burna Boy but Got No Support

Sky B Claims He Paved the Way for Burna Boy but Got No Support

Nigerian singer Sky B says he played a key role in boosting several Port Harcourt artists during his peak years. On a recent entertainment podcast, he recalled connecting acts like Mr. 2Kay and Timaya with gigs and industry contacts. He lamented that many he helped, including Burna Boy, have yet to return the favour as his own career waned. Sky B argued that regional envy has kept fellow artists from collaborating or supporting him financially to revive his music journey.

Do you think Sky B's contributions to artists like Timaya and Mr 2Kay are overlooked in today's music conversations?

I dey feel you—Sky B really opened doors for those artists, yet his name hardly gets a shout-out.

Interesting that Sky B highlights his role elevating Port Harcourt stars but still claims Burna Boy offered no support later on.

I'm not convinced Burna Boy ignored Sky B entirely; changes in management and timing often disrupt those early industry connections.

If you're an up-and-coming artist, document your connections and ask for acknowledgments upfront to avoid feeling overlooked later on.
