Nigerian superstar Damini Ogulu, better known by his stage name Burna Boy, is adding another accolade to his already impressive resume. Essence magazine, a popular American publication focused on Black culture, has named him one of the “Sexiest Men Of The Moment.”

Burna Boy finds himself in esteemed company, gracing the list’s inaugural issue alongside British actor Damson Idris, who takes the top spot. Other notable names include established music icons like Usher and rising stars like Trevante Rhodes and Daniel Kaluuya. However, Burna Boy holds the distinction of being the only Afrobeats artist featured.

Essence’s Entertainment Editor, Rivea Ruff, offered praise for Burna Boy’s unique charisma, stating, “Beyond the obvious physical attributes, Burna Boy’s appeal lies in his distinctly African swag. His voice and presence command the stage, he has impeccable style and is always perfectly groomed and iced out. Ladies love it!”

This recognition from Essence highlights not only Burna Boy’s undeniable talent but also his global influence and captivating presence within the entertainment industry. Fans can likely expect him to celebrate this new title in true Burna Boy fashion!
