Sir Elton John, the iconic British singer, has expressed his desire to collaborate with Grammy Award-winning singer Burna Boy.
In a recent Rocket Hour episode, Elton expressed his desire to work with Burna Boy.
“I would love one day to catch up and do something in the studio with you. It would be an honor for me to do that,” Elton John told Burna Boy. “I’m on a world tour at the moment. But when things calm down, if you ever want to do a song with me, I’d be, You are the one artist that I really would love to do something with, because you really make me happy, and your music is just so fantastic. I’ve played eight tracks of you already on the Rocket Hour. So, we go back a long way on the Rocket Hour with you.”
The award-winning singer further said he ‘absolutely loves and cherishes Burna Boy’s music,’ while saying the 31-year-old singer is just one of the greatest artists ever to come out of Africa.
