Burna Boy — “My Money, My Baby” Burna Boy has had a monumental 2019, mostly due to the success of his career-best album, African Giant. Well, the afro-fusion star has continued his winning streak, appearing on the star-studded soundtrack for upcoming Oscar-hopeful, Queen & Slim.  On the Afrobeat track, “My Money, My Baby”, Burna Boy […]

Kida Kudz — “Money” ft. Teni 2019 has been a really good year for Kida Kudz, thanks to some memorable features (Santi’s “Raw Dinner”, Ms Banks’ “Snack”) and a few quality singles (“Jiggy Bop”, “Bounce”).
