The Afropop song has Tekno giving off amazing lyrics and vocals adding to the charm of “Buga.” “Buga” talks about money, motivation, and jamboree. 

The singer has also explained that ‘Buga’ is a Nigerian saying, which means “Show off”, and “stunt on them”. “So in this context, it means after you’ve put in the work, let your results speak loudly. Enjoy your success. “Whatever you’re seeing out there, whatever results in the song is generating, that’s the result of hard work. And I’ve consistently put in my best in all my songs. Nothing good comes easy,” he said.
