Nigerian Afrobeat sensation Burna Boy has claimed that making music is not a job. He further explained that he derives so much joy from his profession to regard it as a job.

While speaking with BBC Radio 1 Xtra, Burna expressed that he seldom needs a break or a vacation because making music is his lifestyle.

“I love my job. I don’t consider my job a job. I consider it life. Why do I need a vacation from life?,” he stated.

The Last Last crooner further explained that he doesn’t consider his career to be hard labour. He noted that unless he gets old or has a kid, he doesn’t need a vacation.

“It’s not like I am a bricklayer or labourer. That’s what you need vacation from. Not when you’re Burna Boy. My job is literally a lifestyle. It’s what I would wish to do if I wasn’t doing it. So, why would I want a vacation from that? Unless I’m old or have a kid. I don’t even have a kid. There’s nothing I’m vacationing for,” he said.
