“I love this with all my heart!!! Listening to it is not enough. I wanna be the song,” he wrote, referring to Common Person by Nigerian megastar Burna Boy.

Released in 2022 as part of Burna Boy’s Grammy-nominated album Love, Damini, Common Person celebrates humility, resilience, and the beauty of everyday people — themes that strike a chord with Tony, whose own rise in the South African music scene has been anything but conventional.
