DJ Akademiks on Tuesday expresses shock at Burna Boy’s apparent low ticket sales in the US for the NSOW Tour.
He estimated only 4,721 tickets sold for the 10,000-capacity venue, a sharp contrast to Burna Boy’s 2023 milestone as the first African artist to sell out a US stadium.
Fans split over the numbers, with some citing past incidents like the singer pausing a show to eject a dozing attendee, while others shared lively videos from the November 24 Dallas performance showing packed crowds waving Nigerian flags.
Upcoming stops in Minneapolis, Chicago, Atlanta, and beyond still list tickets available, amid unconfirmed talk of venue changes and broader questions about Afrobeats demand in the US.
