Snoop Dogg may have a run for his money as weed king if Burna Boy’s latest story is true.

In a clip making the rounds online, the Nigerian crooner flexed exactly how much Mary Jane means to him (and how a measly $5 mil is pocket change).

In the clip, Burna raps: “Hustle make you no go fall of like Brymo, Just now I turn down Dubai money, $5m na small thing,/ Cos me I no dey like to dey go/ Where dey no gree me smoke Igbo.”

The line also doubles as a shot toward Brymo, another Nigerian singer. It appears he caught wind of the lyrics and responded, calling Burna “foolish.”

Brymo recently accused Burna Boy of plagiarism and said he committed a “crime.” He alleges that two songs off Burna Boy’s latest album, I Told Them…, “City Boys” and the title track, are based off the title track of Brymo’s upcoming album, Macabre.

Burna Boy’s latest album is one for the hip-hop heads, with features from J. Cole, 21 Savage, RZA, Dave, RZA, GZA, and Seyi Vibez.
