Burna Boy - Ye (Lyrics Breakdown + Translation)

[@mrxpression]

Edit: Fela's Sorrows Tears and Blood was released in 1977, not 1997.

[@nyanobrien9885]

My nigga what's it gon be G wagon or d Bentley D gyal dem riding wit me I no fit die fi nothing Meaning I have too many quality options in life to settle for mediocrity (bare minimum), or live a life not worth living (poverty, stress and boredom)

[@libergirl33]

When are you making new videos??? Burma has a lot of songs now and we need you @mrxpression 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾

[@flashmelody6920]

As an African American, I'm loving this. It's something spiritual about learning of the lingo from the motherland.

[@thestylishapex782]

Protect this man at all cost ‼️

[@rosemiller1448]

The introduction of Ye, Ye is so fine

[@tumelomolapo5954]

OMG!🤣 the "OLUWABURNA" Most of us South Africans thought he was saying "NGIFUN'KBABONA!" meaning " I want to see them" in Zulu. At least now we would know, thanks for the lyrics and translation.

[@damianvos201]

In from Suriname 🇸🇷🇸🇷🇸🇷They shipped my ancestors from africa to Suriname🇸🇷 you did not explain what the words "kpai" and "kpeme" means..... ??

[@mrxpression]

They both mean "to die". So, I no wan kpai means ''I don't want to die.''

[@uyiegharevba5160]

Kpeme means to die. So when he says I no wan kpeme means I dont want to die

[@howardhowell1570]

Please interpret " On God" by Shatta wale.

[@onlinestart-upbusinesshust4106]

That would be done better by a Ghanian, as that's Shatta's origin

[@uyiegharevba5160]

A Ghanaian would have to do that because Shatta Wale is Ghanaian

[@agojiedoramilaje27]

I can't come and kill myself means i can't come and kill myself. how else are you going to translate it 😂😂
