GRAMMY® Award-winning artist Burna Boy has released “Higher,” an uplifting new song dedicated to elevating his hometown of Port Harcourt, Nigeria. The release aligns with his ongoing efforts through Project PROTECT, an initiative he founded to provide financial, medical, and legal assistance to communities affected by systemic violence and poverty.
The “Higher” music video, premiering today, documents Burna Boy’s heartfelt return to Port Harcourt. Directed by Burna Boy and Asurf, the video captures moments of his visit to his childhood home and local villages, where he and volunteers from Project PROTECT and The R.E.A.C.H. distribute essential supplies. This collaboration also emphasizes their joint educational and healthcare initiatives, including significant contributions to the University of Port Harcourt Teaching Hospital.
The R.E.A.C.H. (Reach Every Available Communal Household) and Project PROTECT have played a crucial role in implementing sustainable solutions that improve the quality of life in over 21 communities, directly impacting more than 11,000 lives. The video showcases Burna Boy’s philanthropic efforts and aims to inspire higher thinking and selfless acts within the community.
Following this release, Burna Boy will continue his acclaimed ‘I Told Them…Tour’, with major upcoming performances, including a return to London Stadium on June 29 and a headline slot on the Pyramid Stage at the UK’s Glastonbury Festival on June 30.
