Nigerian singer Burna Boy has shared his newest single, “Money Play”.
The standalone track follows the Grammy-nominated artist’s summer LP, African Giant. In a style dubbed “Afrofusion” by Burna himself, the tune rides smooth grooves, stacked with buoyant African rhythms and topped with a pop gloss. In a press statement, Burna commented on the song’s intent, explaining, “This song is a flex, na scratch that. It’s a big flex! I’m highlighting the importance of moving with the ‘cheese’ at all times. ‘No dey carry money play’ is a word of advice/stern warning to never lose the hustle mentality.”
The artist clearly keeps up with the hustle. Even with a full length release this year, he also managed to squeeze in guest work on Jorja Smith’s summer track “Be Honest“, an impressive contribution to the soundtrack for The Lion King: The Gift, and now this standalone tune to round out the year. It wouldn’t be surprising if he had more in his pocket to pull out in 2020.
