A video showing Burna Boy reflecting on the career-defining success of his hit single 'Ye' has resurfaced.

Appearing on Capital XTRA for a "blind ranking" challenge last year, the Afrobeats superstar discussed the legacy of his most iconic tracks while navigating a randomized list of his own hits.

The Impact of 'Ye' and 'Last Last'

During the session, Burna Boy placed 'Ye' in the number two spot of his ranking, acknowledging its profound impact. While he noted that he was already "doing great" before the song's release, he credited the track with fundamentally shifting the trajectory of his career. The revelation aligns with the general consensus that the track served as a major introduction for the artist to a global audience.

The challenge concluded with the Grammy-winning artist placing 'Last Last' at the top of the list. However, in a moment of professional reflection, Burna Boy suggested that the track "could be number two," indicating a level of internal debate over which of his chart-topping hits holds the ultimate crown.

The "African Giant" also navigated other key tracks during the segment, placing 'City Boys' at number three and 'Don Gorgon' at number four.

Audience reaction to the ranking has been divided, with many fans arguing that 'Ye' should have secured the number one position immediately. While the sentiment remains largely celebratory of his discography, some viewers felt the artist "played it safe" by waiting to fill the top spots.
