Veteran American rapper and media personality, Joe Budden, has stated that Afrobeats superstar Burna Boy holds the position of the world's most significant artist. Budden acknowledged Burna Boy's global music prominence but expressed his disagreement with Burna Boy's choice to take ownership of Jamaican artist Byron Messia's hit song 'Talibans' after collaborating on the remix.

Budden recalled a similar situation involving Kanye West in the past and emphasized his continued disapproval of such actions. He articulated these thoughts during a recent episode of his podcast, hosted on the Joe Budden Network.

According to him, “I’m never a fan of people transferring ownership of already existing songs to themselves after being featured in the remix.

“To the biggest artist in the world [Burna Boy]. Yeah, I’m not a fan of when that happens. If you made the hit, go work it. If Burna Boy is on it, that should be yours now. But I don’t know the business he [Byron Messia] and Burna Boy did.

“I never remember that going right for somebody. Designer and Kanye [West], I was vehemently against it.”
