Global star Burna Boy unveils eighth album, teases North America tour.
Nigerian global superstar Burna Boy dropped his much-anticipated eighth studio album, No Sign of Weakness, on July 10. The record features heavyweight collaborators—including Travis Scott, Mick Jagger, Stromae, and Shaboozey—as Burna experiments across country, ’90s hip‑hop, tech‑house, rock, and Nigerian electronic sounds .
Produced under Spaceship and Atlantic Records, the album moves away from heavy-collab formats, embracing Burna’s solo artistry. Critics applaud its ambitious range and textured production .
In conjunction with the release, Burna Boy announced a North America tour launching this November at Red Rocks Amphitheatre. His shows will feature 360‑degree staging, highlighting his dynamic performances. Earlier shows at Berlin's Waldbühne and the UK’s Wireless Festival signal a high-octane promotional push .
The album already dominates Spotify in Nigeria and chart tracking suggests global impact. Burna’s bold musical narrative continues to define Afrobeats’ expanding cultural reach.
