Setting the record straight: Burna Boy didn’t create a music genre called Afrofusion - Burna Boy created the term ‘Afrofusion’, he did not start the practice of fusing several genres with Afrobeat, it is an old age practice in the Nigerian music industry

… Often, Afrofusion songs sound very distant from each other; this is one of the beauties of Afrofusion, the songs have the ‘Afrobeat’ factor in common.

To me Afrofusion is akin to the film industries Nollywood and Bollywood, which go beyond film and music to adjacent spaces that include fashion, food and popular culture.
