Nigeria, May 2 -- Renowned as the giant of Africa, Burna Boy has etched his name in history. He has shattered barriers and set new standards, becoming the first African artiste to stage the highest-grossing arena concert in America.

Touring Data, an international platform that provides a PDF and spreadsheet with ticket count information for tours in the US and Canada made this news public on X.

The Odogwu bagged this one without a contest.
