In a heartfelt reflection, popular comedian Sabinus has expressed his gratitude to music superstar Burna Boy for a momentous opportunity that has significantly impacted his career. Sabinus, who performed at the London Stadium, described the experience as the most pivotal moment of his career.
“Performing at the London Stadium was the biggest one minute of my career! Thanks, Burna Boy. Burna Boy paid me $100k to perform for one minute and still covered my flight to and from London,” Sabinus shared with a mix of disbelief and gratitude.
Recounting the events leading up to the performance, Sabinus revealed his initial skepticism when he received the call from Burna Boy. “When Burna Boy called me to come perform at the London Stadium, I thought he was joking and I just laughed. But I was shocked when he called me two days before the show and said, ‘My bro, pack your bags because a private jet is gonna pick you up tomorrow.’ That was when I believed he was actually serious,” Sabinus recounted.
With excitement and anticipation, Sabinus prepared meticulously for the trip, packing his favorite blue shirt, black trousers, and his expensive shoes. The experience of being picked up by a private jet was a first for the comedian. “That was actually the first day I ever got into a private jet for free,” he added.
Upon arrival in London, Sabinus initially thought he would be performing at an after-party. However, Burna Boy had bigger plans. “When we got to London, I thought that maybe I was gonna perform at the after party but Burna Boy told me that I was gonna open the stage for him,” Sabinus explained.
Facing an audience of 80,000 people, Sabinus almost lost consciousness from the overwhelming experience. “When I came out before 80k people, I almost lost consciousness because I’ve never performed before such a huge audience,” he said.
Expressing his heartfelt appreciation, Sabinus acknowledged Burna Boy’s significant role in boosting his career. “Burna Boy paid me handsomely. I will always be grateful to Burna Boy,” Sabinus concluded.
This act of generosity and support from Burna Boy has left an indelible mark on Sabinus’s career, underscoring the importance of mentorship and support within the entertainment industry.
