Burna Boy Brings 'Love, Damini' to 'The Tonight Show'

Burna Boy was a recent musical guest on Jimmy Fallon's 'The Tonight Show.' He also sat down for an interview.

The recent episode of The Tonight Show featured renowned musical artist Burna Boy.

The African Giant performed his smash hit "Last Last" — which recently surpassed 100 million Spotify streams — and also had a lighthearted conversation with host Jimmy Fallon. During his appearance, he also attempted to teach Fallon his famed signature Afro Moonwalk dance move, a tutorial that social media users were amused by. When Fallon asked the singer how he had come up with his stage name, Burna Boy responded by saying that he was a fan of comic books in his younger years, and at a certain point, he wanted to be a superhero and this inspired the moniker.
