Ed Sheeran in a recent interview with Conan O’Brien has spoken on the amount of weed that Nigerian Afrobeat singer Burna Boy consumes.
The British singer who has had international collaborations and has worked with Burna Boy on songs like Burna Boy – For My Hand feat. Ed Sheeran, STORMZY – OWN IT (feat. ED SHEERAN & BURNA BOY), narrates how his studio was puffed with smoke from Burna Boy.
Ed Sheeran further compared the amount of weed that Burna Boy smokes to that of American singer Snoop Dogg, referring to the Nigerian singer, as the only person he’s known ingesting so much weed.
“There’s an artist that I work quite a lot with called Burna Boy and I’d said he’s… that’s the most I have ever seen anyone ingest weed…” And I work as I said 10-5 and he came to the studio and I had a gig later on and it was very much the studio doors closed and just smoke smoke…that’s the most I’ve seen anyone ingest weed.”
Ed Sheeran shared an interesting anecdote from his Australian performance last March noting that backstage at the Rod Laver Arena in Melbourne, he was joined by Snoop Dogg and actor Russell Crowe.
True to Snoop’s reputation, he invited them to indulge in some cannabis. Sheeran recounted this to Conan O’Brien Needs a Friend podcast and humorously teased American singer Snoop Dogg in the process.
“I don’t really smoke at all. I was in the dressing room, and they’re just blunt after blunt after blunt. I was like, I guess at some point during the night, I have to, just to say I smoked with Snoop Dogg…
“He was like, ‘Do you want some?’ and I was like, now’s the time. We were having a good conversation.
So I have a bit, and I was like, I don’t feel too bad, this is good. Then I have a bit more, and then I have a bit more, and then I have a bit more. I just remember looking at him and being like, I can’t see right now.”

Fans of the afrobeat are accustomed to his style, which is evident in their comments and appraisal of the Love Damini singer, yet some aren’t that happy with the situation, to an “X” user,
@victor fidelis -I don’t know why everybody is happy here but this ain’t a bragging right. You can see Ed Sheeran wasn’t comfortable with it and perhaps Excessive intake of everything ain’t good …Carbon monoxide for that matter.
