3.5 great | Erwann S. STAFF | November 9th 22 | With African Giant, Burna Boy further establishes himself as a figure fighting oppression and raising awareness for a better Africa, and he does with a rather solid blend of Afrobeats, Afrobeat (the first one is what you expect from Burna, the second one is Fela Kuti's stuff, don't mistake 'em!!), dancehall, and hip hop. Conciseness ain't the record's strongest asset: clocking at 60 minutes, the soundscape tends to repeat itself in the second half. Still, there is no blatant filler, and the cohesiveness makes for a nice foray into African pop.

3.5 great | Doublez38 | August 1st 19 | Even if you are going to sort it out and keep only one part because the album is very long and looks the same quickly, almost all the tracks here have their place. With African Giant, Burna Boy is both one of the global pillars of his style and a serious and talented representative who inspires many artists today. I think I prefer Outside but this one is better musically.
