Burna Boy to perform in Global Citizen Virtual Concert

As the COVID-19 lockdown continues to limit our movement and activities, one of the ingenious ways of building fun and entertainment has come from the transition to virtual experiences- live battles, DJ sets, interviews and now concert experiences.

The concert, which was curated with support from American singer Lady Gaga, has raised $35 million which is designed to help healthcare workers and relief efforts in wake of the pandemic.
