Nigerian music star BNXN, formerly known as Buju, is embarking on a bold new phase in his career — one focused on transforming his image and silencing his critics.
Taking to X (formerly Twitter) on Wednesday, the ‘Finesse’ hitmaker declared his intention to enhance his looks as part of his rebranding journey.
“All that’s left for me to do is to get sexier,” he wrote.
BNXN’s post appears to be a confident clapback at the body-shaming comments he has repeatedly received from internet trolls.
Despite his chart-topping success and growing international recognition, the singer has often been targeted online over his body type.
His announcement signals a shift not only in image but also in narrative — taking control of how he’s perceived by fans and critics alike.
This isn’t the first time BNXN’s physique has made headlines. During a highly publicized feud in 2022, fellow singer Ruger body-shamed him during their online spat. However, Ruger has since expressed regret over the incident.
“I feel bad that I body-shamed BNXN. I regret it,” Ruger admitted during an interview last year.
The two artists eventually reconciled and surprised fans by dropping a joint project titled R&B, signaling the end of their rivalry.
BNXN’s latest declaration has sparked support across social media, with many fans applauding his confidence and self-awareness. As he embarks on this new chapter, it’s clear the Afro-fusion star is not just refining his music — but also redefining himself.
