Grammy award-winning Afrofusion pioneer, Burna Boy releases his latest single: the introspective “Want It All,” featuring Ace American rapper, Taurus Tremani Bartlett, known professionally as Polo G.

Produced by A-list talents, Smoke Ono and Sean Silverman with the accompanying arresting photostory visual directed by Adrian Yu and shot on location in Los Angeles, USA, ‘Want It All’ is a refreshingly different dimension to the Afrofusion genre, with Polo G’s verse being the icing on an already perfectly-baked cake. Burna Boy has surely stolen our hearts and taken us to the suburbs with this tune.

The African Giant × Polo G’s team-up is magnificent as they boost this charming track and visual with cooing backup vocals of choristers towards the end of the visual, evoking an avalanche of emotions. Profound as ‘Want It All’ is, this song weaves itself around you, and is given life in understated video images, but powerful nonetheless in delivering its message. On this collaboration, Burna Boy says, “I’ve been watching him for some time, and I just knew this had to get done, but it had to get done in the perfect way where the whole world gets to feel the reality of both of us.”

After shutting down the O2 Arena and notable appearances at the 2021 Global Citizen Festival and The Governor’s Ball, this multiple award-winning A-list artiste is currently preparing for his historical Hollywood Bowl performance on Friday, Oct. 8, 2021, as part of his global Space Drift Arena Tour.

Lyrics

[Intro: Burna Boy]
I’ve been trying to achieve

[Chorus: Burna Boy]
I remember when they said they don’t believe in me no more
I was sleeping on the ground, on the cold floor
Whole time I was grinding, I’ve been tryin’ to achieve
Working night and day, you know my people no dey sleep
I got every Louis V collection from Virgil
And my life a fashion show, no rehearsal
Dior from Kim Jones, Bottega from Daniel
Hundred K my ring so I’m not shaking no hands no

[Verse 1: Burna Boy]
Really rich but grind like I ain’t got shit at all
Wanted just a little, but now I want it all
It’s already one when they ask what I ball for
For all thе times you ain’t pick up when I called you
I know whеn I came in to this world, I was so low
So tell me your opinion na your nyash o
Convexed because I say I did it to my own oh
If I enter fire now shey una go follow
I’m tellin’ you, back in ’09 I really sold dope
No lie, no cap, God knows
No dey talk like say you know, because you no know
If you was here right now, I’d tell you I’d ask Gambo

[Chorus: Burna Boy]
I remember when they said they don’t believe in me no more
I was sleeping on the ground, on the cold floor
Whole time I was grinding, I’ve been tryin’ to achieve
Working night and day, you know my people no dey sleep
I got every Louis V collection from Virgil
And my life a fashion show, no rehearsal
Dior from Kim Jones, Bottega from Daniel
Hundred K my ring so I’m not shaking no hands no ooo

[Verse 2: Polo G]
In my stomach, butterflies
Ain’t been sane since my brothers died
We woke up like fuck, it’s now, never put a ho above the guys
I have dug deep into your heart and I discovered lies
They gon’ tell my story, I’m that nigga, what they summarize
I came out a winner, I don’t care what happen otherwise
Long nights I remember we gon’ ask to let him cut his ride
Made it out the gutter, can’t go back to what I used to do
We just gettin’ money, fuck hoes, you know the usual
And this shit forever, can’t accept the thought of losin’ you
Lot of pressure on me from them obstacles I’m movin’ through

[Chorus: Burna Boy]
I remember when they said they don’t believe in me no more
I was sleeping on the ground, on the cold floor
Whole time I was grinding, I’ve been tryin’ to achieve
Working night and day, you know my people no dey sleep
I got every Louis V collection from Virgil
And my life a fashion show, no rehearsal
Dior from Kim Jones, Bottega from Daniel
Hundred K my ring so I’m not shaking no hands no ooo

[Verse 3: Burna Boy]
Can’t believe, I really came home with a Grammy
I was in the mansion celebrating with the family
You don’t come from where I’m from, you may not understand me
Obviously I never cared about your understanding
Got the biggest honour from Port Harcourt City
All time I was there, I was just looking at my daddy
Felt like nothin’ else seeing him as proud he can be
I get emotional when I talk about my daddy
Who’d thought I’d take it this far?
Did it all with my art and it came from the heart
Gotta take me to court
But let’s go because my Richard Millie is now worth five-four mil
And the prize goin’ up so I don’t need no love

[Chorus: Burna Boy]
I remember when they said they don’t believe in me no more
I was sleeping on the ground, on the cold floor
Whole time I was grinding, I’ve been tryin’ to achieve
Working night and day, you know my people no dey sleep
I got every Louis V collection from Virgil
And my life a fashion show, no rehearsal
Dior from Kim Jones, Bottega from Daniel
Hundred K my ring so I’m not shaking no hands no oh oooo
